i don't think you get the guy-- his primary campaign against hillary had very long odds, he stuck to his game and won in the end.
health care / health insurance reform has been attempted here FOR 100 YEARS. clinton started from a strong position and broke his teeth. obama learned this and started from the center-- proposing some shit that even nixon (republican "not a crook" dead president) had attempted. the teabaggers polarized the game because a lot of reasons but basically because they fear that the negro socialist will take away their freedom.
balls, no balls, opinions, assholes, etc.-- results is what counts and we got them
