I think he did a pretty good job considering he didn't use a teleprompter which is his typical MO. The guy is certainly articulate and smart and I think he should be given a fair chance to get some stuff done. Someone once wrote, regardless of how you felt about them personally, when Clinton was in the room (like at a meeting or press conference) he was the smartest guy there, when Bush was in the room, he was the dumbest guy there. I think President Obama at this point falls somewhere in the middle. (Clinton sure would not have had that gaff on the Tonight Show, Bush would have done 100x's worse.)
