They know they’re in trouble. One of my coworkers was talking about how bad of a speaker President Bush was, so I showed her several videos of Obama stumbling and bumbling when he didn’t have a teleprompter.
She also couldn’t believe the “57 states” comment — she admitted that we would never have heard the end of it if Bush said that. She also didn’t understand how anyone could say that; it should be so ingrained in our mind, like second nature.
That's certainly true for those of us who grew up in America, isn't it?
