Putin held a year end 4:15 min press conference last week. No teleprompter, no soft ball questions, thousands of international reporters.

It can be seen on the Internet and well worth your time (otherwise used by searching for garbage by semi neacons paid in part by Soros).

After you have watched it you will understand hopefully why Putin has 90% popularity in Russia and growing respect world wide.

You needn't respond if you haven't watched it.

Putin has 90% popularity in Russia and growing respect world wide

In a country with no competitive elections, state monopoly on the TV and heavily regulated Internet, popularity ratings mean nothing. The ability to make off-the-teleprompter remarks also means nothing. This "popularity" thing is more accurately termed "cult of personality".
