Well, the scene is already set for an uplifting week of healing rhetoric and outreach to independents.
Democrats are having plenty of high-profile problems dealing with the simple question: “Are you better off than you were four years ago?”
Expectations are being managed.
What they thought was a rambling speech by a fading old-timer turned out to be the perfect metaphor for the president’s lack of leadership, perfectly suited to the age of memes.

The debt clock will deliver a similarly unwelcome message when it clicks over to $16 trillion as the DNC kicks off Tuesday.
