Begala: Obama gets good marks for humor
I give President Obama an A for his press conference. He showed mastery on a wide range of issues - a rare and important skill.
Also, he was great at showing humor tonight - something he has stumbled over in the past. We all remember the mistake he made on Jay Leno, and his joking about Nancy Reagan in a way people found offensive.
But it's a sign of confidence to come back to something that didn't work the first couple times.
From CNN Politics
- Biden reverses some Trump policies related to Cuba, making it easier for families to visit relatives in country
- Results are in: Best Balance Transfer card of 2022

- FDA announces it will make it easier to import some baby formulas to ease shortage
- Barnette said she was leading buses to DC for 'our 1776 moment' on January 6, 2021
- Proposed New York congressional map could pit longtime Democratic members against each other

Humor? Obama has next to no truly humerous traits. He's a bore.
the president could literally spent the first 100 days in a coma and, as long as he was a democrat, Begala would have given him an A.
Actually, the fact Obama wasnt given an A plus from this partisan hack speaks volumes about his real performance. Emmanuel is going to be angry he left off the plus, I'm sure it will come up when he is telling Begala what to say next.
