Oba-spin on the debate aftermath

WSJ; Henninger: The Un-PresidentBarack Obama shows an unerring instinct for policy deniability.  "One of the most familiar Obama positions—repeated at every campaign stop—is that he "inherited" a bad economy from George W. Bush. Set aside that whatever the cause, everyone concedes he took over a tough situation. More to the point is Mr. Obama's compulsive insistence that anything awry in the economy during his first term is "not my fault." "

Obama Dropping Al Qaeda Brag From Speech?   "Who has been politicizing the far greater tragedy of 9/11 more than Barack Obama?
"Lest we forget, George Bush was not even allowed to mention 9/11 when he was running for re-election. But Obama has made the killing of Bin Laden and the ‘defeat’ of Al Qaeda the centerpiece of his campaign."
First lady: President 'didn't point fingers, didn't place blame'   Wait...what?  "First lady Michelle Obama said Wednesday that President Obama did not look to blame others for the challenges he faced as president, an apparent rebuke to Republican accusations that the White House continues to point the finger at President George W. Bush for the lagging economy."  Incidentally, this link was provided by left-leaning memeorandum.
