Pelosi To Progressives, Pundits: Don't Blame Us For Senate's Shortcomings

Obama's 'most ardent supporters' have one excuse after another to explain Obama's & Democrats' failure to achieve their constituents' objectives, everything from "Republicans thwarted them" (when Republicans weren't needed for passing anything), to Obama's ineptitude.



To believe any of it, you would have to be ig.nor.ant of how government operates, and been in a coma to have missed the pitch-perfect campaign that Obama ran in both the primary and general election. That Barack Obama knew that you don't make concessions before you sit down to negotiate. You may not know that, but I guarantee you that Obama does, as does everyone around him in the White House & in the Congress. Everyone in any kind of business knows that.



Do you think that if Republicans take control of Congress next year that the Democratic minority, with greater numbers than the Republican minority has now, will be as effective at thwarting the Republicans?



Obama came into power with a golden opportunity, a catastrophic crisis, to get through sweeping change. For Obama to have blown it, and how he blew it, says everything about his real intentions.
