Re: An Endorsement Barack Obama May Not Want (none / 0)

I remember the same "getting anything passed was quite an accomplishment" rhetoric from you when Obama took that universal health care bill in Illinois, talked with all the lobbyists about their concerns, and then turned it into a bill to create a study group.

The idea is supposed to be to defeat the entrenched interests, not to give them whatever they want.  I know, I know, when he's President it's going to be totally different.

The fight will just begin when he's President. None of us are under any illusions about that. But the fact is that he's shown more of any ability to fight and win these battles than either of his opponents, and I'm not particularly certain which side Hillary is even on.
