PRESIDENT NEWS CONFERENCE
I am still impressed with Obama's command of the facts and his ability to explain clearly and fully the facts and the issues. What a contrast! But this also means fewer questions from the press. The President can and does give extended answers that take many minutes. So it's good and bad.
I judge the press conference a success. President Obama gave a clear and convincing performance. I would have preferred more emphasis on the public option, more passion, and a more forceful insistence that this reform must be done and must be done right. "Here is what must be done; all Democratic legislators, take notice!"
In other words, the President should put out the message that he will not support Democrats who fail to support him on this issue.
