What is the appeal with this guy?

What the hell do they pay Robert Gibbs for, anyway?

In the pantheon of past White House Press Secretaries, there are some serious boners... but this guy is amazing. Dead-pan, no sense of humor, incapable of putting together a coherent sentence in response to a straight-forward question... where is the appeal?

Now he is reported to have said that the GOP "might" win the House in 2010? As one of the primary voices of the Administration today, does anyone else think that is a stupid thing to say? When Americans think of Democratic leadership and policy implementation, don't they think of the current White House staff? Isn't Gibbs supposed to be the voice of Obama and the Oval Office? Does that mean that Obama is ready to concede the House to the GOP, four months before the general election?

I never thought I'd miss Ari Fleischer... but I do.
