What you'll hear from the media today is that Obama feels bad and "shellacking."
Throughout the press conference, reporters tried to get Obama to concede that the election was a rejection of his policies. Obama didn't concede, though he was humble, reflective and said he needs to work harder. He used the word "shellacked." Reporters seemed pretty pleased with that. Reporters also seemed to try to evoke some blubbering from Obama, like Boehner did. Obama's just not the blubbering type. He remained his pragmatic self.
Obama said people equated his administration's emergency response to the recession--what many called government overreach-- to his agenda.
I say it's time for the republicans to get on that job creation. Dems need a Slurpee break. Oh, and did you hear that Boehner might be foreign born? Foreign, as in alien, like the kind from outer space. yep. Not very patriotic.
