Anything Can Go Wrong In A Debate,

At The Start Of His Second Term, One Wonders Less About Obama's Fitness Than His Willingness: Why Doesn't He Do More To Build And Maintain The Relationships Required To Govern In Era Of Polarization?

Obama Shows No Sign Of Easing Up On Negativity.

Obama Still Has Work To Do With The Vision Thing. Convincing Voters That He Has A Credible, Practical Plan To Turn The Nation Around Is A Process, Not A Speech.

Obama Does Not Need To Worry As Much As Past Democratic Presidents About Being Labeled Soft On National Security - Not After Giving The Order That Led To The Assassination Of Osama Bin Laden. No, His Biggest Concern Is Being Labeled Tone Deaf On Joblessness And Debt.

Every Now And Then, A Presidential Candidate Surprises Us With A Truly Human And Honest Moment.
