22. This plays right into Obama's hands. He can have his center-right presidency only if
he has a Republican Congress to "force" him into his Reagonomic policies. As you see with the healthcare bill, the idea that Blue Dogs are forcing his hand isn't going to hold water for more than a couple of years. He has to have a Republican congress so he can please his donors, and have a ready made excuse for those of us on the left who dare to criticize him.
