Well, the spill isn't any better after the cap, but that slick operator Bama had a plan B. Instead he met with common folk - people he has no understanding of - to harvest their sad stories and then relay them himself back to the press. Referring to these hard-working men by their first names as if he'd known them all his life, Bama tried to become a man of the people. Money quote: "Even when I'm not here, I'm thinking of you." He might have just said what he actually believes: "God is watching, and he works through me alone." Nobody's gonna believe him. As much as he wants to be, he's not Bill Clinton.
Then he goes on to tear into BP, trying to voice the people's frustration that is actually focused just as much on him as BP, and threatens more lawsuits without actually saying the word.
If he'd just seemed to care early on we could live with what should be an obvious fact that he can't do anything personally to stop the spill - this is BP operation to the finish. But he had to stumble and resent the imposition of the event and then overreact and now he's compounded problems ten times over with the decisions he has made.
Hey Bama, STOP, you idiot!
