The President has finally given up on trying to work with the Republicans.

58. So far...not seeing much of this. But, then I'm in a state being beseiged

by Alec and Koch Brothers which has received little help from Dem Party aside from the Dem Convention which was held here after that NC turned Red for 2012 and we lost control of our State House and Senate to Repugs for the first time in over 100 years.

This is a Southern state which turned Blue for Obama in 2008. It went downhill after that.

But, "the people" are taking things into their own hands to try to undo the damage. We don't expect help that has been absent to be forthcoming. Howard Dean and his 50 State Strategy was what allowed Obama to win in NC. All that work went down the drain once Obama won. He and Dem Party preferred to focus on Swing States. There wasn't enough Party follow through after he was elected.

We shall see.
