Republicans want to see Obama fail. They don't want to cooperate on anything with democrats. So bah humbug to the republicans. Obama needs to become more partisan to increase majorities in a democratic congress. Republicans don't have a chance in 2012 when the truth is told.

The Economy the way it is, is the result of many things which is not entirely Bush's fault. It includes a democrat agenda while Bush was president and before when Clinton was president and continued under Obama and made worse by putting us deeper into debt before his term was even half way done.
We don't need to give Obama more time. He doesn't know what to do.
Republicans want to see Obama fail? Democrats wanted to see Bush fail and to this day they blame everything on Bush...still.
That is one reason why the democrats lost. The American public got tired of hearing about how it's all Bush's fault years after Bush is gone.
The other issues are socialized medicine, the government taking partial control of companies, the failed housing crisis which Bush had hardly anything to do with and what looks like a socialist agenda when it comes to our health care and economy.
America voted the dems in not because America agrees with the democratic platform. They voted them out because the democrats didn't get it. They were giddy, drunk. They thought being voted in was an approval of their agenda when in reality it was a reactionary movement.
Republicans need to learn that same lesson but they won't. This has been going on for years in American politics
