I'm kinda amazed that O and his team aren't handling the stimulus bill better.

I'm kinda amazed at the flack O is getting on the stimulus deal....

I thought he was taking a page from Reagan's book and just staying out of the fight on the Hill. He could then be the Conciliatory One after it failed the Senate, thereby cutting the Hill D's feet out from under them, and co-opting the R's.

Seems like he's just floundering though. Should have stayed out it it until they were finished and then gotten involved....I would have thought Rahm would have given him better advice on this.

The R's are rolling, though...maybe the party ain't dead...
