...as long as obama has the "it's my way or the highway" attitude, he will have an obstructionist congress. Yes, Obama won, but he didn't win in the districts that elected republicans to congress and the folks who voted for them did not send them to Washington to kiss Obama's ass.

ribit,

Since dealing with the obstructionist congress, I do think the majority (that the People voted for) should be responsible & have their policies enacted.
This should be what happens after elections.

Republicans have made it impossible, they have filibustered & stonewalled governance.

Likewise, when the dem's are the minority, they would face the same rules.
