Your post is legitimate==========. I did not deny that. My point was that he is under any analytical framework the far lesser of two evils. I for one do not want GOP appointing supreme court justices, don't want them fashioning tax policy or ramming their social policy or environmen tal policy down our throats. Do you want me to say that I have been disappoint ed? OK, I have been disappoint ed. But the only point that I was trying to make is still valid- utterly valid.

If the Bush years taught us anything, it's that anyone can sell anything and ANYONE to Americans, if you're stolid and relentless in your sales pitch and tactics.

Obama and Democrats know how to do it -- They don't want to do it.
The trick for them has been to keep the many different populist groups believing that they really do support our issues, but they're merely inept. And to get us to keep voting for them despite their failure to achieve our alleged shared objectives.

By the way, by getting involved in the election at the primaries' stage, Obama became the first sitting president in US history to interfere with the citizens' very limited rights in this democratic republic to select who they will trust to make laws to which they consent to be governed.

It's not just the House and it's not just Republican
BEFORE THE MIDTERMS, Obama broadcast that he would be doing more of the same, even if Democrats remained the majority and in control of both Houses of Congress. More caving by Obama & Democrats, to Republican
Aides say that the president's been spending "a lot of time talking about Obama 2.0," brainstorm ing with administra tion officials about the best way to revamp the strategies & goals of the White House.
And despite the predictions that Democrats may relinquish a large degree of legislatin g power, including perhaps control of the House & even Senate, Obama isn't thinking of the next two years as a period that'll be marked with the same obstructiv e nature from the GOP.
"It may be that regardless of what happens after this election, [Republicans] feel more responsibl e, either because they didn't do as well as they anticipate d, & so the strategy of just saying no to everything & sitting on the sidelines & throwing bombs didn't work for them," Obama says. "Or they did reasonably well, in which case the American people are going to be looking to them to offer serious proposals & work with me in a serious way."
Dick Durbin says Obama's post-election agenda "will have to be limited & focused on the things that are achievable and high priorities for the American people." Tom Daschle says Obama has to reach out more: "The keyword is inclusion. He's got to find ways to be inclusive. "
