Thoughts On, You Know, President Obama's Press Conference

Here's what struck me about President Obama's press conference.

For all his eloquence he used the words "you know" 36 times during the exchange.

Using those two words help cost Caroline Kennedy a chance at the Senate.

The first time he used that term he said, "You know, there was a lot of outrage and finger-pointing last week, and much of it is understandable."

For a moment I thought he was going to say, "You know, there was a lot of outrage and finger-pointing last week, and much of it came from me."

You know what I mean.
