| 9. The President is in some serious trouble |
|
Taking on the Health Care legislation before financial reform was a serious miscalculation. The behavior of the White House on catering to conservative democrats concerns over the progressive caucuses was another.
He's about to face an angry revolt in his own party. 95% of the progressive caucus is safe for re-election in 2010, the Blue Dogs, not so much.
