‘The Epitaph of the Obama Presidency’

Political analyst Charles Krauthammer addressed Barack Obama’s campaign rallies following the State of the Union, in which he challenged Republicans to quit saying “no” and just go along with his agenda. “Looks like he still knows how to stir up a college audience,” Krauthammer dead panned. “I mean, this sort of reenforces the idea that I’m sure will be the epitaph of the Obama presidency: He couldn’t govern, but he sure knew how to campaign. As he said in the State of the Union address, the best line he had and the most revealing was, ‘I won twice,’ sort of congratulating himself. Look, everything he presented [Tuesday] night, all the tax proposals and also the new entitlements, he knows are going nowhere. The State of the Union address, you’re supposed to actually – if you’re serious about it, even semi-serious about it – you want to present the outlines of a real agenda. This was done entirely to seize the stage and the agenda after the shellacking he took in the last election to pretend he’s still in charge, to put the Republicans on the defensive. … But it had no relationship with reality. And the reality he described of the great economy returning, he’s had two quarters of growth and he’s acting as if it’s the California gold rush.”
