I disagree with him on one point only:
It is at this point that the phenomenon known as "too clever by half" sets in. Technically, it is indistinguishable from arrogance and hubris, but it is unnecessary to stress the point. Sixty days into his first term (and I begin to doubt there'll be a second), he would seem already to have dug a hole from which no rhetorical skill can lift him.
I'd love to be nodding my head at the "I begin to doubt there'll be a second." Unfortunately I lived through the mess that was Bill Clinton and I firmly believe that he'd have been elected a third and fourth time if he could have had the Constitution changed. The majority of voters went to the polls and voted for Obama with their fingers in their ears, knowing exactly what they were getting and refusing to hear the dangers, and they will do it again.
