I think that whether you like it or not the trust we are seeking to return confidence to the market requires the transparency he laid out in both our government and Wall Street. Yanking the bandage off these one secret entities will sting and cost us in the short term. I think his ambition to cut the current deficit in half by his first term is the right message. I felt he was, as always, calm, cool, and collective. Great moment, great speech, great timing. I liked the upbeat tone and the sensible disclosures of where he wants to lead the country.

I still maintain he was the best man for the job but poor effort tonight. Jindal handled the response well, but his comments too were more about stories than substance.
