obamas problem is his own party, who despite 60 votes was incapable of passing meaningful reforms. They shoulda scrapped the filibuster on day 1 & passed all kinds of big reforms the corporate lobbyists would have hated.
although obama & the democrats are badly vulnerable on matters of balls & balancing budgets, the republicans are such a loony basketcase it really makes no difference whose in charge.
either way the government is completely out of control & can't be reformed.
