Obama/Me, Myself & I

During his recent tour around the country, err….Ohio, after getting pummelled by the “independent” voters of Massachusetts, President Obama stopped for a rally in Elyria, OH.  His purpose there was to give a jobs speech as he pivots and tries to salvage his own presidency and the Democratic party he now leads.  However, a slight problem was uncovered by Americans for Prosperity.  What was purported as a “jobs speech” turned into something all too familiar….(I found this quite entertaining as well)

This video combined with the recent revelation from retiring Democratic U.S. Representative from Arkansas, Marion Berry.  When he and other moderate democrats were expressing their concerns about reelection and not repeating the devastating mid-term election of 1994, Representative Berry says this:

The president himself, when that was brought up in one group, said, ‘Well, the big difference here and in ’94 was you’ve got me.’ 

What an interesting and intriuging election year this shall be.

    I copied the speech into Word and searched for every instance of “I “. I counted 35 times Reagan said “I.”

    Here’s the speech: http://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Ronald_Reagan%27s_First_State_of_the_Union_Speech

    Thank you.
