54. The president is one person and can only do so much.

I told the Obama haters...you want a liberal president, elect a liberal Congress and don't abandon the president the first time you don't get what you want (2010). We need a house and a Senate...I don't know if we will get the House ...the Senate probably. But you have to be realistic. All this hysteria over Hillary's position on TPP...Obama ran on trade agreements...I voted for him in spite of this...you have to pick the best candidate and hope for the best. But not voting only plays into the GOP hands especially in the off-year elections which is how we lost governorships and the House.
