Obama Sweating in Chicago

Rahm keeps an eye on Obama's jacket. The One takes a stab at energizing his core supporters in his home City that's not working so well:
“It’s been a long, tough year. But we have made some incredible strides together. Yes, we have. But the thing we all have to remember is, as much good as we’ve done, precisely because the challenges were so daunting, precisely because we were inheriting so many challenges, that we’re not even halfway there yet,” he said.
“Now, when I said change we can believe it, I didn’t say, ‘Change we can believe in tomorrow.’ Not, ‘Change we can believe in next week,’ “ he said. “We knew this was going to take time because we’ve got this big, messy tough democracy.”
Oh yeah. Quite the stump speech. The market's poised to tank again, we've got Treasury borrowing at 100% of GDP, the economy's flatlining, but of course, our President Barack Obama can't do it all alone.

At least he sweat like the rest of us yesterday.

How about "No, I did'nt!"

That would mean honesty, something foreign to this president

It's been a long time since I heard O--or anyone else--promise, "Yes we can."

Yeah, I mean, when we think of that now we think of he and the Dems wrecking the country.
