In reply to the discussion: The Incomplete Greatness of Barack Obama [View all]Frustratedlady
(16,254 posts)8. Well said.
It appears to me that Obama doesn't want to "brag" about his accomplishments...that they got a lot done behind the scenes without raising flags for the Repugs.
Now, when they come out with long lists of accomplishments, it's too overwhelming and the RW pooh-poohs it. They need to be spoon-fed information in bits and bites, as they can't absorb too much information at one time.
If we can give him a House and Senate he can work with, he will end up one of the greatest presidents in our lifetime.
