When the speech is over people are probably going to say it was a great speech. Obama gives great speeches. But a speech isn’t going to change much. What we’d really like is some guidance on how to fight for this bill. That’s what we didn’t get before the recess. Instead, we were forced to fight phantoms and bullshit. If Obama can fix that problem, then I’ll consider the speech successful. If he sticks it to the obstructionist Republicans, all the better. If he points at Joe Lieberman, asks him to stand up, and kicks him out of the caucus, I’ll call it a home run.
