Very disapointing secret plan, no silver bullet as he lead us to believe.
Just like Obamacare and Stimulus get it passed before any body can read it
Same old same old.

The Admin for the past week and a half has been saying this speech wouldn't offer a silver bullet.
It was a decent speech and seemed to get a good amount of GOP applause.
The real measure of success here is if Obama can work with Republicans in Congress to actually get something passed. Considering many of the proposals he's trying to lead from the middle (again) which hasn't worked before as Boehner can't control his own house.
If *any* legislation is passed Obama will be able to call this a success. Republicans in the next election are going to start fearing an obstructionist label.
