Because there's so much uncertainty right now, I want for the American people to hear and to understand what connects these issues." Still, speeches only get a person so far, even in Washington. If Obama wants to salvage his top priority, he must form a concrete plan and remind Democrats that, as happened in 1994, failure to pass legislation now will cause major political damage come next November...
