No, just like the Dems welcomed George W. with "open arms" Remember?
He "Stole the election from Gore" (which he did). The Democrats hated his fucking guts.
But W. is a leader (I don't agree at all with what he led us to). And in short order he was meeting with opposition leaders and working WITH them.
That is my point. Obama never has. It's his way or the highway. And it's failing.
It doesn't matter if the Republicans hated him at the start. That's the way it is with every President and opposing party. They all give lip service to "working together"
But then it is the PRESIDENT who has to make that happen. That's his job as executive.
He is simply a failure at bringing the moderate Republicans to his side. And we have gridlock.
