The best thing to ever come out of Clinton's mouth!! http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090220/ap_on_go_pr_wh/clinton_obama_economy(More On The Job training for the Chosen One) I have thought this all along, if he would just shut up and quit being such a downer, things would get better. He has got to realize how what he says efects the market and the world.

pretty sure Obama was speaking optimistically at his inauguration about getting through our economic problems. and how exactly are you agreeing with Clinton, if you want Obama to shut up and he wants Obama to speak?

Thank You Truff, couldn't have explained myself any better than what you just did. Guess I need to speak more clearer and slower for those who have drank the Kool Aid and ate the Cotton Candy.

Don't you just have to wonder if Hillary isn't jetting around the world and thinking - Boy! Am I Ever Glad That I DID NOT Get the Nomination, or this mess would have been Mine!

It's all in the spin BF, all in the spin. Clinton could tell you that your house was on fire and the IRS was coming for $6B in back taxes, but say it in a way that didn't cause you to have anxiety attacks. There are some presidents who just have a gift like that. Reagan, Kennedy, FDR for example. You can say the bad stuff, but make it hopeful and not disasterous.
Like Truff said - make it a Win One For The Gipper speech instead of doom and gloom.

I wish Hillary was in more than Obama; at least with her, you had an idea what she would do.
Kind of "the devil you know is better than the one you don't" because, honestly, does anyone really know BO?

If you don't tell people that there is light at the end of the tunnel they won't bother to venture in. You guys are assuming he doesnt' know what he's doing when he says these things. It's all part of the plan. You bet'cha!

If you don't tell people that there is light at the end of the tunnel they won't bother to venture in. What if the light at the end of the tunnel, is a train???

Either his current mode is a rookie mistake, or he is pushing something else. Seriously, I'd say I'm 90% convinced that we're seeing the evidence of something that was said over and over during the election, Barack Obama just isn't ready for prime time. Unfortunately, Bill Clinton is having to give him a little on the job training. Pretty sad, actually.
