YESTERDAY’S PRESS CONFERENCE STILL NOT WOWING THEM: The Hill: President Obama bristles, says he still has juice for second term. “The remark was a far cry from the triumphant tone heard in 2009, when Obama proclaimed he was ‘proud of what we’ve achieved’ and ‘pleased with our progress’ after 100 days in the Oval Office.”

UPDATE: Reader B. Coleman writes:

In analyzing any number of political movements, regimes and governments over the past 500 years, Jacques Barzun notes that all of the successful ones had to have BOTH political genius and administrative genius to survive and be effective. Administrative genius sees and manages every detail and knows its importance of lack of importance in the greater scheme of things.

I think Obama may have appointed political operatives to administrative positions – thus all of the too many misses and obvious chaos in many areas. I also don’t think he sees his error and gets cranky about the failures. He sees only political reasons for his failures not administrative ones.

Well, he has no administrative training or experience.
