Thomas Friedman: "way too soon to tell" if we should have known more about Obama.

NYT’s Friedman: ‘Way too soon to tell’ if media blew it vetting Obama the candidate

It appears that Friedman speaks as badly as he writes: 

“Way too soon to tell that kind of thing, I think,” Friedman said. “I think if — look, what have I been calling for, you know, the president to have — I think there is, we just so desperately needed a grand bargain that involves restructuring of debt, raising of taxes, cutting of spending and investing in the sources of our strengths as a country from everything from infrastructure to government-funded research to education. It’s so clear that’s what we need.

Huh?  Yeah. Whatever Tom.
