They didn’t just see the President challenged. They saw how he responded to
the challenge, which included direct factual questions, and it didn’t make
him look good. The pitch for Obamacare was all about why solving the
problem was necessary, that people would be happier when it was solved, and
that people who opposed Obamacare did not want the problem solved. It did
not include explaining how Obamacare would work or why it could be expected
to succeed.
My takeaway was that the President has given clearer proof than ever beforethat he believes his rhetorical skills permit him to say anything at all and
be convincing, and since he was on Fox, he has presented that evidence to a
much larger audience than usual.
