George Soros Tells Progressive Donors Obama Might Not Be The Best Investment
Wednesday, November 17, 2010
Aside from the fact that the best predictor of future behavior is past behavior, Obama's already said that he's going to do the same thing that he's been doing. He said it both before the midterms, and reiterated it after.
Before, even if Democrats remain the majority, more caving to Republicans:
==Aides say that the president's been spending "a lot of time talking about Obama 2.0," brainstorming with administration officials about the best way to revamp the strategies & goals of the WhiteHouse.
And despite the predictions that Democrats may relinquish a large degree of legislating 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 obstructive nature from the GOP.
"It may be that regardless of what happens after this election, [Republicans] feel more responsible, either because they didn't do as well as they anticipated, & 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."
DickDurbin says Obama's post-election agenda "will have to be limited & focused on the things that are achievable & high priorities for the American people." TomDaschle says Obama has to reach out more: "The keyword is inclusion. He's got to find ways to be inclusive."==

After the midterms:
Obama Urges Bipartisanship, Not Gridlock
Obama vows to ‘redouble’ efforts toward bipartisanship
Then there's Obama's signaling to extend the Bush tax cuts.
Come on now; how far into denial are you going to go?
