from a different point of view. President Obama does not have the Public behind him to cut Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid. It has nothing to do with the Democratic Party. If he does meet the Republicans' demands, the Public would consider President Obama a sell out. They are just disrespecting the Electorate which put him in office. Why does Boner think the President won the recent Election? It was not to cut Social Security, Medicare or Medicaid.
He won because he promised to protect those programs and raise taxes on the wealthy. That included closing those loop holes for the wealthy and making them pay their fair share of taxes. Romney and Ryan loss the Election. The Pundits need to understand that also and quit using the Republicans' talking points. If they do not respect us, then he does need to keep going out to the public, in order to keep us informed. I'm ready for 2014. We have a clear target on Republican Governors in several states. He needs to take that organization of his and campaign for Democrats in 2014. I'm part of that mailing list. He can also work on the judicial system by nominating more judges. As long as the Republican Party keeps obstructing, we can make them pay in a couple of years. I think our coalition is more powerful than the tea Party.
If I was the Democratic Party, I would take the issue of Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid and tie it around the Republicans necks with especially seniors. And people that receive Medicare and Medicaid, I would use those issues the same way in 2014. The Republicans are out in the open now for wanting to cut those programs. During the recent Election, they tried to accuse President Obama of cutting Medicare. Now we know the truth and the media is in on it too. Just look at the recent Polls. There is no Poll that I know supports cutting these programs.
