Paul Krugman: Obama Could 'Go Down In History As The Wimp Who Threw It All Away'

I understand FDR had a huge majority. But the thing I was trying to zero in on was the fact that he held a vision, he talked to the citizenry constantly to rally their support, and he relentlessly pursued his agenda for almost his entire time in the White House.



All of which, I'd suggest by the way, helped maintain a Democratic majority. It's a point of logic that escapes (I think) the brain of the party's leadership (if there is any). Create a vision, drive it home to the public, and keep the barbarians at bay.



But I digress....



Obama is a stone cold failure on all those important traits/techniques. No vision, no drive, no determination, no nothing. Just a guy looking for bipartisanship merit badge. Terrible.



I submit that if he publicly battled republicans on the key points of principle, he'd help win back a majority in the House. He gelds himself and slows or retrenches progress because of his timidity and fear of leading.



Sorry to prattle on... I'm so frustrated by this guy.... underachiever of the millennium.
