Why is it a "gaffe"?
A gaffe is a social error.
Didn't he say what he meant?
Has he retreated from his position?
Seems like it was a clear expression of his belief.
Stupid and naive it may be, but I think he really feels that way.

I’m just not hearing the hosannahs about Obama I used to hear—and I’m in Cambridge, MA.

I misread the word “Third” in the headline as “Turd”.

What does the Hildabeast think the Iranians and Syrians will say to her after she has just finished putting her tail between her legs and running ? This is Presidential ? How come no one points out what she said 3 months ago , Just the opposite! How about if I knew then what I know now I would have done it different ! Wow what leadership !

Barack Hussein never was the crispest cracker in the box.

This will also count against Obama’s viability as a vice prez selection. We don’t foreign policy moran there either.

I don't think it was a gaffe. His base believes in what he said, and his support will increase because of it.
That having been said, all the Democrats, Obama included, have a big problem, which is that Hillary has enough support to win today, and none of her supporters are going to change their minds, no matter what.

Perhaps a set-up question from Hillary supporters?

The “magic muzzie” got caught with his bag of tricks visible to the audience. He was shown to be a cheap manipulating illusionist, not the “magic ticket” to a new leftist world order. What an empty suit for a pant full!

Stupid and naive it may be, but I think he really feels that way.I believe Charles operates on the assumption that Obama has no core beliefs, just an appetite for power. Therefore he talked with a mouthful.
To: Izzy Dunne
He has tap danced around his original statement since the debate. The problem is he was preaching to the choir. He know that was the answer that the kook fringe wanted to hear. The Hildabeast was smart enough to know that Obama’s answer came across as pathetically naive to the rest of the country and pounced on the softball that Obama served up.

He reminds me more and more of Jimmy Carter. Carter was arguably the most supremely incompetent and naive (due to his overweening moral vanity) POTUS in modern history.

Don't underestimate him. His biggest obstacle to being elected is the fact that he can't beat Hillary for the nomination.
