"The other is the devastating portrait of Obama in Bob Woodward's latest book. "Presidents work their will -- or should work their will -- on important matters of national business," Woodward writes. "Obama has not." It's because he doesn't know how.

Um, Azgard....
"Success" and "Obamacare" belong not in the same sentence.

Kinda funny how yawl went from whining about Obama ramming Obamacare down your throats to buying into Woodward's stupid assertion that Obama hasn't been able to work his will on important matters of national business.

Apparently not having any intellectual integrity means you can believe both things. Which one do you blank out first?

The consensus on Barack Obama's acceptance speech Thursday night, and in effect on the Democratic National Convention as a whole, is that it was a bust.

One reason may be optics. Obama was scheduled to deliver the speech in a stadium seating 64,000 people. But on Wednesday, after Charlotte, N.C., had been pummeled by periodic rainstorms all week, organizers moved the event to the convention hall.

The last two stadium acceptance speeches, in 2008 and 1960, were delivered in Denver and Los Angeles, where it seldom rains in the summer. That's not true of Charlotte...
