"President Barack Obama will speak to the press Wednesday afternoon to address his party's resounding loss in the 2014 midterm elections, according to White House press secretary Josh Earnest. He is expected to strike a tone of compromise and accountability following a Republican takeover of the U.S. Senate and many of the nation's gubernatorial offices.
Obama tried reached out to Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), who is widely expected to be the next senate majority leader and who also won re-election Tuesday night, and left a message, CNN reported.
The president's press conference will take place at 2:50 p.m. Eastern time from the East Room of the White House."
Without watching or hearing his drivel:
He'll be late to very late as usual.
I don't buy the BS that he'll "change his stripes".
Will any of you be watching or hearing this press conference?
The only thing he should change is to be a little more aggressive...
By the time Obumblers done the only people that will vote Democratic will be the illegals he gave amnesty too. He's going to:
a) Destroy the job market for the black community
b) Destroy the middle class by adding so much tax burden the middle class will be taxed beyond anyone's dreams
c) Create an entitlement society that pisses off the working class
d) Totally destroys the average wage because 11 millions illegals flood the blue collar job market (which there are not a lot of)
e) Totally destroy salaries because illegals (the smart ones) take IT, Engineering and other jobs (which there are not a lot of)
I could go on and on but the point is this guy is bound and determined to destroy the Democratic party come hell or high water..
It's going to be hilarious to watch the Democrat's reaction as the party bleeds to death from a thousand cuts from their dear leader. They guy they supported 99% of the time. They guy that put them in the weakest position in congress since the earlier 1900's..
This is way to funny to watch.. God, I feel like I'm 20 again.
My takeaway of this thus far. Obama will not budge on 'his ideas' and obviously doesn't believe the election last night was a repudiation of his ideas. He claims the only thing this election showed was that the electorate doesn't think DC works, completely skipping over the fact that the electorate decided DC didn't work because of the Democrats in office!
In his press conference he claimed "bad messaging" for his failures.
And every day how many thousands of teens turn 18? How many brown people become eligible to vote?
Unless they start making more white people, the Republicans are in trouble. This stuff we're arguing now is short-term. Long-term is another story, and you know it.
For proof that times are a changin', all we need do is look to the polls for gay marriage and marijuana. If you told me ten years ago that 32 states would recognize gay marriage, I'd have said you were nuts.
Millennials are not deluded. And they are already taking over the country. My supervisor is one. The software company I work for is full of young people in high positions, and they're whip-smart.
Get with the program or be left behind. The America you thought you knew--the Leave it to Beaver America that never existed--is long gone.
"all we need do is look to the polls for gay marriage and marijuana."
If think most voters base their votes on these 2 issues, you are sadly mistaken.
He hasn't done anything worthy of impeachment. He hasn't been an effective leader and he's divisive but that's not illegal.
The GOP needs to get past the impeachment talks and get serious about solving problems. An obstructionist Obama is the best chance for the White House.
"He hasn't done anything worthy of impeachment".
A whole lot of people believe he has.
They ALSO know it is futile with only 2 years to go with him.
