When President Obama walked up to the podium to talk about the thumping the Democrats got in the 2014 midterm election, he was not slouching. He seemed resolute. It is clear that while the president nominally accepts blame, he must know that acquiescing to the will of Democrats to mostly stay out of campaigning with them likely sealed their fates. They decided not to run on Democratic accomplishments that are now paying dividends.

President Obama's seeming disaffection about the election results was so obvious that Fox News Ed Henry's questions became a bit contentious. "I haven't heard you say a specific thing during this news conference that you would do differently," Ed Henry said. "You've been asked it a few different ways. I understand you're going to reach out. You've talked about doing that before. It's almost like you are doubling down on the same policies and approach you've had for six years. So my question is, why not pull a page from the Clinton playbook and admit you have to make a much more dramatic shift in course these last two years?"
.
In other words, Ed Henry and his ilk are asking the president to capitulate to the Republicans. He brought up President Clinton as if Clinton was a model to follow. One should remember that Clinton's capitulation-or maybe chameleonic triangulation-effected the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act, a repeal hat was partially responsible for the 2008 financial collapse.
