President Obama says that the idea that he failed to persuade Americans that his major accomplishments would hellp the country is a "fair argument."
In an interview with “60 Minutes,” excerpts of which were published by CBS News on Friday, Obama said “we haven’t always been successful” at selling his pitch to voters. “I take personal responsibility for that,” he said. “And it's something that I've got to examine carefully ... as I go forward."
"I think that, over the course of two years, we were so busy and so focused on getting a bunch of stuff done that we stopped paying attention to the fact that leadership isn't just legislation,” Obama said. “That it's a matter of persuading people. And giving them confidence and bringing them together. And setting a tone.” Continues @ Politico44 including a preview clip [You may have seen the whole thing.. I didnt watch it on TV; actually not watched any TV since noon and it's a good feeling. LOL.] =======================
Ah, ya think?

I watched the "Ego-In-Chief" tonight and he admitted to his inability to be able to get his message across because he REFUSED to own up to the fact that his policies were a failure in the voters minds.
And he was getting hammered about "were you're policies wrong."
