8. Nice dodge
Let's see, it's not like he won by 20% or something. His margin was about 7% or so. So almost anyone can claim they "got him elected". The real important part is we ALL got him elected, and trying to marginalize any part of that as some how "in need of drug testing" is foolish and best and ignorant at worst.

He's fought with the unions in Arkansas and then told them they "wasted" their money.

He's fighting with the teachers unions everywhere.

He pushed out the single payer folks, doctors and nurses amongst them, from the very beginning.

His CoS insulted major progressive action committees.

I'm not sure how many more "base" constinuencies we can afford to piss off.
