Still waiting

A month has passed since the Democrats greased the skids and got health care reform passed. How are those polls doing now? How excited is the base now?
It’s a rare president who doesn’t disappoint some starry-eyed supporters. But Obama’s problem is more acute, in large part because expectations were so high, and he consciously played into the cult of personality that worshipped him as the savior of the Left. He’s lost the Center, enraged the Right, and bummed out the Left. Not every president can do all that.
