The Obama Explanation Tour continues, with the latest stop being a speech to union workers in DC:
Obama on Tuesday morning told the Building and Construction Trades union representatives at the Washington Hilton that there is a lot of anger in small towns because of troubling economic conditions, and candidates who do not realize that are not in tune with what voters are saying.
"If anybody denies that people are frustrated and angry and, yes, sometimes bitter, then they are out of touch," Obama said.
Over at MSNBC, Chuck Todd says the "Teflon Man" may just do it again:
Perhaps being cynical, what primary voter that was already with him will now leave him over this? So far, Obama has had an uncanny ability to turn lemons into lemonade -- whether it was over the "unsavory world leaders" brouhaha last July, the "Republicans were the party of ideas" debate in January, or the recent Wright controversy. Will he do it again this time? If so, he may very well be this cycle's Teflon Man, a characteristic that might not be lost on Democratic superdelegates.
Meanwhile, Jonah Goldberg argues that we've seen this all before.
