Some Pre-Speech Reading

Here are a few recommended commentaries in advance of President Obama's speech tonight to a Joint Session of Congress on health care reform:

WaPo's Steven Perlstein;

Slate's Timothy Noah; and

NY Times' MoDo.

A common theme, explicit or not: please show some truck nutz tonight, Mr. President, and don't be afraid to take on your enemies (the Rethugs) as well as your putative "friends" (the Blue Dogs).
