Watching the President now, he just said "I think the Republicans really fucked up this health care debate...they should be trying to fix it instead of blaming the President!"
This is a guy who has voted Republican since Nixon, and used to hate Pres. Obama. His attitude changed back in October when he found out he would benefit under "Obamacare"! He was also really critical of the GOP during the government shutdown.
Not only is his tone softening on Pres. Obama's policies, but he even commented on how much he liked his suit and tie!
We are turning a page, and moving in the right direction!
