People have to face facts. She's not a messiah either. Any bill she proposes will not get passed in a Republican Congress. Yeah they got the Blue Dogs out. Well, well, and now the Rs have Congress and nothing's happening. Obama could have done the same things EW seems to get credit for not doing if only some of these Ds were still there. And that doesn't even take on the House.
