Fresh from a Twitter town hall with chosen questions, Obama met at the White House with those who oppose him.. Republicans who loudly say they don’t want to increase the debt ceiling but quietly know they will have to .. a president who is grayer than ever before.. the image of the Commander in Chief today was startling.. sweat beading up on his forehead…more wrinkles than he had in the spring…a portrait of a president–and candidate–who doesn’t have the same youthful fire he had in 2008. 2008, when the world seemed to be ready to change..
Change now, some say, may be the GOP’s rally for 2012.. in a nation still not recovered from recession..a depressing recession at that. Manufacturing? Where are you.. service? …not there.. business? Gone. Wall Street? You’re in the money.
It’s going to be a long hot summer. If the image of President Obama has foretelling of anything, a lot more sweating is yet to come..
