The Beacon:

To Shamed Dogan, a former Republican candidate for state representative from Ballwin, the Obama administration has so far been far from special.

“I think his first year has been surprisingly disappointing,” Dogan said in an e-mail message, “and I say that as someone who was telling my liberal friends before the inauguration that Obama would disappoint them. I expected him to adopt a dangerous combination of pro-big government and pro-big business policies, but I didn’t realize how quickly there would be a public backlash against him, and I certainly didn’t expect him to be so tone-deaf and inept in his responses to  criticism.”

As far as what he expects to hear from the president Wednesday night, Dogan wrote:

“I would like to hear President Obama admit that he tried to do too much, too fast, and with too little input from the other side of the aisle. He should take the opportunity to change course and work with Republicans (as in adopting some of our ideas, not merely making a few feel-good phone calls to congressmen) to stimulate entrepreneurship and economic growth.” Read more…
