This is an excellent post. Its explanation for Obama's (and the congressional leadership's) position is spot on.
In this environment, Obama can't afford to be a purist. He can't try to satisfy the desires of everyone in the progressive blogosphere. He has to win the election first. If he doesn't do that, he can't do anything.
