Obama > Jindal
February 25th, 2009
I’m pretty critical of things in general and politicians specifically. There is a lot Obama has done in the last month that I don’t agree with. But I thought he killed it at his press conference on the stimulus, deftly batted away McCain’s sour grapery at the fiscal summit, and I thought he was excellent tonight.
People always say Obama is great, but not quite the communicator Clinton was. Maybe I was too young for Clinton, but I think Obie does everything Clinton does, and without the occasional condescension. He’s got to be the most talented politician in a couple generations. And was Bobby JIndal selling me the Republican vision for America or a set of knives for $20 dollars if I call in the next half hour?

Jindal was a remarkable embarrassment, even to Dems. Which recalls the tremendously embarrassing delivery Bill Clinton gave in his first convention speech. Never underestimate your opponent, even if smirking does seem in order.
