"Obama has governed as a conservative. So, the question for progressives is, “What do we do now?”

So lets go over this quickly because it seems someone is misunderstanding the subtleties of American politics. Obama needed to get reelected and cannot due so on the merit of progressive achievements alone. Although we can all agree legislation aimed at populist benefit is what is best for the country, some of our more ignorant and misinformed counterparts will vehemently disagree. As it has been stated that the president hasnt used his powers but the president's power is rooted in what Congress will allow. Obaba didnt lose the midterms, the conservative push to "get government hands off their medicare " won those elections. I will be more disappointed in my president when he wins a second term and continues to pander and pussyfoot around fighting for what his supporters actually will support. Whether you like it or not pur president has accomplished more in four years with one of the more obstructive legislatures than bush ( a neocon assclown) did in the full eight. Now please stop with the anal ostriching and go support the man america needs for four more years. Rmoney will throw my grandma and yours under the bus and i wont stand for it.
