Instapundit — OBAMA’S TROUBLE GETTING REPUBLICAN VOTES: It was not for lack of effort on the part of the new president. Obama went to the Capitol to visit Republican as well as Democratic lawmakers, and he encouraged the Democratic draftsmen to scrap a couple of egregiously irrelevant spending programs they had penciled into the bill. But the complaint I heard from Republicans was that Pelosi and her lieutenants, committee chairmen Charlie Rangel and David Obey, had used the tight timetable and their control of legislative procedures to block virtually all efforts ...

Republicans Can't Understand Why Obama Doesn't Adopt Their Program Of Failure and Ruin
DownWithTyranny! — ... One of the worst of the Inside-the-Beltway political journo hacks has long been-- for as long as anyone remembers, in fact-- David Broder over at the Washington Post. And those looking for a dose of insipid, asinine Broderism won't be disappointed by his silly column tomorrow about how badly Obama needs Republicans.

He wants to be like Ronald Reagan, steering his first economic measures through a Democratic House in 1981, not Bill Clinton, passing his first budget in 1993 without a single Republican vote. The first way leads to long-term success; the ...

Republicans have zero ideas on the economy (but David Broder thinks their votes matter)
AMERICAblog News| A great nation deserves the truth — ... Don't read David Broder's column today. It conveys everything wrong with the conventional wisdom, of which Broder is the king. In short, he thinks Republicans are "The Votes Obama Truly Needs." He's been listening to Republicans on the Hill who are whining Democrats have been mean to them. They're complaining about the process, which Broder thinks is legitimate. Actually, Broder should read Rich's column. Because while the GOPers complain, they still have zero ideas -- and the Republicans actually did cause this economic crisis in the first place (a fact Broder chooses to ...
