Misunderestimation

I agree with John Aravosis that the Repugs will always be partisan, but I am not so sure that the current battle is a big loss for Obama. I can't remember who said it, but someone wrote that people underestimate Obama at their peril, just ask the Clinton's. Obama has just begun the public relations offensive. He is a clear speaker, very nimble on his feet and far more intelligent than most or perhaps all of the press, so I will be very interested to see his press conference. He has been clear from the beginning that although he wants bipartisan support for legislation, that doesn't mean that he want to repeat the disastrous policies of the previous administration. The big flaw of the Democrats is avoiding a filibuster. I don't think the Repugs would look all that wonderful arguing against firemen, policemen, children and maybe puppies, who are directly affected by the cuts in state aid.
