President Obama fooled New Hampshire voters once. He is unlikely to do it again, especially if he sticks to the fraudulent rhetoric he used on a captive audience of Manchester Central High School students yesterday.

The President’s approval rating is down to 43 percent, according to the latest Gallup poll. It’s there for good reason: people don’t believe his spin anymore. Sadly for the President, and for the country, that’s all he has to offer, as his Central speech showed.

What the President delivered was more of the same: talking points exhausted by over-use. To sell his so-called jobs bill (another stimulus bill that won’t work), he tossed out his standard cliches: Republicans are only for “millionaires and billionaires” and they put “country before party.” Congress should “pass our jobs bill,” which is supported by independent economists and opposed only by corrupt Republicans.

Missing was any sense that this President has listened to the American people since he took office. The people want solutions, not partisan rhetoric and more “stimulus” targeted only to the industries and people the President and his party want to help. They want the unifier President Obama claimed he would be.

“We are not going to have an America in which only a sliver of folks have an opportunity,” the President said. This is what he thinks of America. He agrees with the out-of-touch Occupy Wall Street movement that America is rigged to favor the wealthy, and his No. 1 duty is to “spread the wealth around.”

The President thinks he can’t get his legislation through Congress because the people haven’t heard him clearly. So he travels around the country giving this same speech over and over. But he is failing precisely because they are listening, and they don’t like what they hear. They don’t agree that the problem with their country is that Washington doesn’t do enough to take money from the rich and redistribute it to everyone else. The President is committed to that goal, but the rest of America is not. That isn’t going to change no matter how many speeches he gives.
