Obama's town hall meeting/speech

He did excellent - public speaking is one of many stronger talents. But please, lets not judge Obama against Bush. Perhaps you could compare him to one of your own like Clinton, the Bill variety. I think Clinton did just as well, if not better.
I mean seriously, Do you want to say "Well he was better than Bush" to be Obama's legacy? I think thats a little insulting to him - don't you?

I'm saying if the podium fits...

Why not compare the two? For 8 years I squirmed watching Bush speak, thinking "come on you can do it...spit it out, you're all right, come on, don't be dumb sparky" and comparisons in every other way are acceptable so why not the fact that it's important our president doesn't look like a complete fool at all times?

What a non-response, dude.

Yeah, that kind of gives Obama an unfair advantage. It's like comparing Richard Nixon to a badly brain-damaged 5 year old.
