THE PROFESSIONAL LEFT LEFT OUT

Well, not "left out" so much as proven dead wrong in their dire predictions that Obama would capitulate to Republican rhetoric.

I knew that they were their usual over-pessimistic selves, deeply seated in their own self interest and, for the most part, whiny partisans who are as bad as the right wing nuts. This must be the way a traditional Republican feels about all the blather from the baggers and the other know-nothings.

But Obama rose to the occasion. A full throated argument for the liberal vision. A deep dismantling of the so called "courageous" and "serious" Ryan plan. Tax the poor and give to the rich, it was.

And now, the lefty bench is chastened if not cheering.

Obama Speech Defends Liberal Principles.

And yes. It was a grand showing of the way he will be in campaign mode. He gave a template for dismantling the so called GOoPer "vision" which is apt, clear and, with repetition will resonate with all but the most retrogressive voter.
