"For all our troubles, midterm finds this Administration and this country entering a season of hope. We inherited a mess, we didn't run away from it and now we're turning it around ...

We've got to prove that what we said about it is true - it'll work."
Barack Obama November 2010?
Nope. Ronald Reagan January 1983.
