    We shouldn't do something as big as health care reform on a party line vote. (Another norm broken by Obama precedent.)

        Yeah, after dozens of GOP amendments to the ACA, the Dems passed Romneycare without any GOP votes bc they pre-planned to vote for nothing.

        Why tweet something easily proved false? It well illustrates the fact-free climate we're living in.

        The norm broken was the GOP's vow to obstruct Obama at all costs, even at the expense of the majority of the country.

        I believe the blame lies with the repubs in Congress refusal to work with Obama, not with Obama himself. Blame solely belongs with Mitch

        Obama had a condescending style that grated on both parties. W, Clinton, Bush Sr and Reagan all managed to work across parties.

        None of them were opposed by people claiming they weren't citizens of America. Obama's race caused him all sorts of problems. Undeniable.

        I somewhat agree. But Obama was extremely irritating to listen to. I felt like I was sitting in grade school.

        And America deserves way more condescension than Obama ever delivered. Trumps election proves that.
