12. "Give me a Congress that will work with me."

That is what you never heard. And that was a conscious decision because he wanted to gently peel off some Republican voters who would split their ticket.

By not prosecuting the case against this worst Congress ever, he really doesn't have much of a mandate to force them to behave any differently. And they aren't.

He cot himself elected, period I'm glad for that, but we are still screwed until we can deal with the House.

Obmaa has a second chance. There is absolutely nothing that prevents him from going out and kicking some Congressional ass as we lead up to 2014. Obama doesn't have to run again, so there is no reason for him to play it safe.
