Paul Begala: “If Barack does his job in his speech, nothing else will matter. And he has never disappointed in a major speech.”

But the kind of, just, dopey slurs coming from this dim-witted vice president — this charmless oaf — you can have him.

For the first time since Reagan, a Republican, won voters making less than 50 grand a year. Now, as a Democrat, I don't like that. But as an American, I admire it.

He has a mandate to cut the cost of groceries, gas and rent. He promised to cut the cost of energy in half.

I'm skeptical because I don't think he gives a rip snort about those blue collar guys who voted for him.
