The New York Times: Reports on how Capital Hill Dems feel about POTUS, the article notes the following, " In interviews, nearly two dozen Democratic lawmakers and senior congressional aides suggested that Mr. Obama’s approach has left him with few loyalists to effectively manage the issues erupting abroad and at home and could imperil his efforts to leave a legacy in his final stretch in office. "
Lets Get Real:
This means that Capital Hill Dems are looking past Obama to Hillary and also the uber liberal NYT wants to make sure that it keep its readership, and also gets favour by the Clintons. The cool Obama is now seen as distant, he was never a political player such as LBJ and Bill Clinton, while Ronald Reagan could charm he could could also deal. Thus the three former Presidents had better relationship with the Hill, they had people who fought for their agenda, but once Obama leaves office in 2017 there will be nobody, the only interest Obama has is Obama not the Democratic Party. That is what you get when you elect a charming Jimmy Carter type President, both seen as distant by the Hill, who did not see their election as part of the politics as usual, they were outsiders, both had a foreign Policy that was bad for the US, thus lets hope the Republicans choose another Reagan type character, a POTUS who is President of ALL, but can play the political game.
