On principle, members of the GOP did not vote for the absurd, budget-busting (and largely useless) stimulus bill or for the Cap and Trade bill or the Obamacare bill. Because they were bad bills.

How bad? The Dem Cong had to bribe their own members to scrape up the votes to pass them.

Obama thought he could stiff the opposition (recall his cocky, “I won” comment to GOP leaders) and push his agenda through on a partisan basis. Now, after the Masschusetts election, he’s pointing fingers.
