Good to hear it hasn't been a disaster; I've been quickly reviewing this thread to get a sense of what has occurred because I have been unable to watch (and not sure I'd want to).
I'm curious whether you or anyone else here has seen any evidence of Obama's use of the Delphi Method. This is a facilitation strategy by which an individual leads a discussion group but does so with a purposeful and often disguised agenda. He acts as a neutral arbiter in superficial respects, but actually directs the flow of the conversation - and the conclusions ultimately reached - by group participants through subtle (and sometimes not so techniques).
One of these is something I've seen Obama do on a number of occasions - treating a question or concern as an attack on the group (a triangulation technique). I'm just professionally curious as one who acts as a business process facilitator, but a truly neutral one (I hope).

Grassley: I know what people are saying. I’ve had 32 town hall meetings! Good on him.

If this was a curling match, one team should concede.

“Good for Grassley”
Grassley impresses me today; he exudes experience, credibility and authority. 0bie has no grounds to interrupt. Muslims respect their elders. ;-)

Hi, there.
For some reason, when I hear the term “curling,” I can’t help but think of hair.

Fox News did as well & wouldnt you know it, Shep is talking down to John Thune. Claiming congress HAS to do something.
To: keepitreal
I don’t think they’ve gotten that far yet, which is part of the problem...people don’t trust that those behind Obamacare have the knowledge and foresight to know what they are doing...or that anything they are now doing is truly for ‘the good of the people.’
