"This wet blanket, this occupier of the least interesting corner of the faculty lounge, this joy-free zone, this inert gas."

Peggy Noonan talking about Obama in the WSJ.  When she's on, the lady is ON!

On to the aftermath of the election. On Wednesday, President Obama gave a news conference to share his thoughts. Viewers would have found it disappointing if there had been any viewers. The president is speaking, in effect, to an empty room. From my notes five minutes in: "This wet blanket, this occupier of the least interesting corner of the faculty lounge, this joy-free zone, this inert gas." By the end I was certain he will never produce a successful stimulus because he is a human depression.
