Fox News Panel: Will This Be The Week Everything Turned Around For Obama?

 

This morning on Fox News Sunday, a roundtable of political analysts discussed President Obama and President Clinton’s Friday joint press conference on the tax deal — and contrary to what most are saying, suggested it may have been a good moment for President Obama.

After watching a clip of Obama exiting Friday’s press conference and handing the reigns to President Clinton, NPR’s Mara Liasson commented: “I do believe that if President Obama is re-elected, the people who write the books on it will show this week as the week when things started to turn around for him. Not only with the deal itself, but also the fact that the White House seems to have gotten over its Clinton-phobia, where they used to eschew everything and every strategy that Clinton ever did. And now, they realize there is something to learn from what Bill Clinton did when he had a divided government…Obama shows that he has no problem with that. It’s a good sign about a leader.”
