You are actually talking about Obama doing something, when republicans have done everything possible to destroy his Presidency, by blocking any and everything he tries? They even signed a pack to try to destroy his Presidency, from the very beginning no less.

Harry Reid has been the cause of gridlock in Washington. He, with Obama's urging, has blocked votes on several hundred bills that were passed by the House. Reid also refused to allow Republicans to even propose amendments to most Senate bills. There has been no compromise because Obama and Reid made no effort to compromise.

Republicans have not destroyed Obama's presidency, he has self-destructed, and he is still talking like a president who controls both houses of Congress. If Obama is going to accomplish anything over the next two years, then he needs an attitude adjustment. Otherwise, he will continue to destroy his own party's 2016 election prospects.

As of this moment, the historic 2014 election has solidified Obama's position as the worst president in U.S. history. If he wants to improve his position, then he needs to follow the Clinton model.

I watched Clinton's reaction to losing control of the U.S. Senate in 1998 and Obama's comments following Tuesday's election. Clinton took full responsibility for the Democrats' losses and acknowledged that he would need to find areas of common interest with Republicans in the last two years of his second term. Obama? He talked as if he had won the election because turnout was low and two-thirds of registered voters stayed home.

Like I said, if Obama does not come to grips with reality, things will only get worse for him and his party. Republicans will send bills to Obama's desk and if he vetoes a large number of them, then the voters who have not already recognized who has been responsible for gridlock will have no doubt by 2016.
