Obama mercilessly hammered—by the media

I haven’t yet watched Obama’s Nov. 3 press conference (and am not going to), but here, from that press conference, is a YouTube collection of the brutally tough questions he was asked.

For his answers to those tough questions, I suggest reading/skimming the transcript, which is much faster than listening to the endless press conference and having to hear Obama pronounce every sentence with that same fake intonation. Skip his opening statement and start with the first question, from Ben Feller of AP:

Are you willing to concede at all that what happened last night was not just an expression of frustration about the economy, but a fundamental rejection of your agenda?

After that comes a series of similarly brutal and direct questions, all of which Obama ignores, while he keeps repeating that “folks” are unhappy with the economy.
