This article is quite long, but I enjoyed it. Really highlights the details behind the struggle between our would-be-bipartisan President and the current state of American politics.
http://www.newyorker.com/reporting/2012/01/30/120130fa_fact_lizza?currentPage=all The theme that sums it all up to me is really interesting: Obama was able to beat H. Clinton by framing her in the way the American public already had: divisive and combative. But in the end, he may find more success as POTUS by emulating her. |

at 3:20 PM, Monday January 23, 2012 EST deadcode, I think what you said is a fair assessment then.
I think there's more to the posturing than the effects of Keynesian economics, but I that's all a matter of opinion. |
