re: #198 Obdicut

He never really had congress. There were all those blue-dog dems, and Lieberman, and a very short space of time where they even technically had 60. And he begged, pleaded with the Senate Democrats to get a tax raise on the rich passed, and they didn’t get it done.

He can’t do shit without congress actually pushing things forwards.

Well, I admit I’m somewhat new to political realities, but I do think that the biggie was ACA. The focus after should have been on not losing congress. Still, I admit I don’t know what I advocate.
