Republicans could not have stopped it

as they would not have been able to unify against things that they had been promoting...sure there would have been token resistance but these types of programs would have been easy sells AND kept his popularity up.

It would have also, imo, created a better environment for him to go after healthcare...but that's monday morning quarterbacking...and doesn't make these initiatives any less important right now.

Sure, understanding today's complex world of the future is a little like having bees live in your head. But...there they are.

At some point one would have to admit - (beepster) - (54) - Sept. 9, 2010, 09:42:32 AM EDT
