If Mitt Romney Is Vanilla, Chris Christie

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.

Ap Promoted Me To The White House Beat Because I Knew Clinton, His Family, Friends, And Staff Better Than Anybody In The National Press Corps. Those Contacts Helped Me Break A Few Stories And Get My Career In Washington Jump-started.

A Concrete Agenda And Landslide Victory Might Not Even Guarantee A President His Mandate In A Capital As Polarized As Washington.

Climate Change Was A Point Of Division Between Obama And Republican Rival Mitt Romney. The President Declared Climate Change A Global Threat, Acknowledged That The Actions Of Humanity Were Deepening The Crisis, And Pledged To Do Something About It If Elected.

This Is Romney's Biggest Political Weakness. His Policy Flip-flops And The General Sense That He's Not Comfortable In His Own Skin Leads Voters, Including Many Supporters, Wondering About His Core Values.
