Ask any Republican, and he will tell you that Washington is just as bitterly divided along partisan lines as it was when Barack Obama was swept into office on a giddy wave of hope and change. Or ask the president himself.
In a taped interview that aired on CBS Sunday Morning, he told Charlie Rose:
Washington feels as broken as it did four years ago. And you know, if you ask me what is the one thing that has frustrated me most over the last four years, it is not the hard work. It is not, you know, the enormity [sic] of the decisions. It is not the pace. It is that I havent been able to change the atmosphere here in Washington to reflect the decency and common sense of ordinary peopleDemocrats, Republicans and independents who I think just want to see their leadership solve problems. And, you know, there is enough blame to go around for that.
When Rose asked Obama if he was on the list of those deserving some of the shared blame, he responded: I think there is no doubt that I underestimated the degree to which in this town politics trumps problem solving. Short answer: No.
