Sully on Obama:

It Gets Better ... Really. [Ed. Note: How Can It Not?]

Who Is Washington's Most Effective Politician?
...
Yes, there have been failures. The election of Scott Brown; the 2010 mid-terms; the surrender to Netanyahu and AIPAC; the botched and ill-conceived war in Libya; the failure to embrace Bowles Simpson up-front; the collapse of cap and trade (maybe not such a bad thing anyway). But notice what hasn't happened. Where are all the scandals promised by Michelle Malkin? Where are his Katrinas and Monicas?*

When I read commentaries expounding on the notion that this man is competely out of his depth, I just have to scratch my head. Given his inheritance, this has been the most substantive first term since Ronald Reagan's. And given Obama's long-game mentality, that is setting us up for a hell of a second one.

(*talk about setting the bar low...)

Come to think of it: that would be considered brilliant, in some circles: Setting the bar deliberately(?) low, low, low in your first ... performance evaluation, just so you can show tremendous rates of improvement in the end, making it look like you really made a big impact with the overall percentage shifts.

ADDED: If I were the president, I wouldn't be counting too much on the Sully vote though. Traditionally unreliable/finicky (much like the Althouse "independent" vote), and there's plenty of time for Sullivan to notice the shifting winds before the next election rolls around...
