Ricochet is the best place on the internet to discuss the issues of the day, either through commenting on posts or writing your own for our active and dynamic community in a fully moderated environment. In addition, the Ricochet Audio Network offers over 50 original podcasts with new episodes released every day.
Jim Geraghty of National Review and Greg Corombos of Radio America are pleased to see Pat Toomey and Marco Rubio in stronger positions in their key Senate races. They also shred Pres. Obama’s patently dishonest speech calling Obamacare a great success, proposing more government involvement, and demonizing Republicans. And they groan as Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump can’t even do humor well at the Al Smith dinner.

Trump can make fun of his wife, but not of himself.
That was a pretty interesting spread of lies from Barry. Easily de-constructed but he spouts it anyway.
But there’s only so much of that clown I can listen to.
I think the President that Obama will be most compared to by historians is Woodrow Wilson. Both were thin skinned, stiff-necked representatives of aggrieved minorities that eventually turned out to be failed Presidents, despite their gifts. Both were positive he had a monopoly on virtue and that any opposition had to be based on low motives. Wilson failed in getting the League of Nations approved despite the fact that he could have done so with two very minor, inconsequential concessions to the opposition, because to him opposition was immoral. Likewise Obama could have gotten 80 Republican votes for 80% of Obamacare, busted McConnell’s intransigence and been a very successful liberal had he had a different personality and mindset.
