In a halftime interview during Monday Night Football, President Obama likened political reporters to sports journalists.
“Political reporters are a lot like sports reporters,” he said. “You lose a game and you’re a bum. You win a game, you’re a God. You know, the truth is, just like in sports, in politics we’re all human, we make mistakes. Sometimes we perform well. But the key is to just stay focused on what it is that you’re doing.”
