Can Obama Fight?

(Community Matters) David Corn on “Can Obama Fight?” in Mother Jones:

If he wants voters to believe he’s a fighter, Obama needs to show them, not tell, them.

Proclaiming “I am a fighter” will not be enough. He will have to name his foes (financial institutions, insurance companies, Republicans, and perhaps recalcitrant Democrats) and truly exchange blows.

I agree with my friend David. While Pres O prioritizes changing the tone and ways of Washington, perception is reality. The American people want to see someone *fighting* for them, not just hearing that we’re doing so. Let’s open some cans of whoop ass on behalf of America’s middle class.
