Call it the unkindest Dukakis of all . . .
In the pre-SOTU kibitzing, Game Change co-author Mark Halperin, having read released excerpts of the speech, says it reminds him of the man in the tank, Michael Dukakis.
Halperin, who prefaced his punch by professing his respect for PBO et. al, was reacting to Andrea Mitchell, who claimed to hear echoes, of all people, of Ronald Reagan in PBO's remarks.

The media so wants a black man to succeed as president they fall all over themselves trying to cover up his incompetence. So far all they got is a pres__ent.

The lib media is futilely trying to make BO seem like Reagan; a man they hated and tried to destroy.
That's how worthless Obama is. His sycophants are trying to elevate him by comparing him to a man they despise on every level.

The O intention was to link himself with Reagan from the very beginning of his campaign.
When I listen to O the last person on earth I am reminded of is Reagan.
Perhaps, little Ronnie Reagan would be a better comparison.
