60 seat majority is over

What's stupid is that the President said this(introducing Biden): "After decades of steady work across the aisle, I know he'll be able to help me turn the page on the ugly partisanship in Washington, so we can bring Democrats and Republicans together to pass an agenda that works for the American people."

He has failed miserably, obama is as partisan as it comes, even though he ran as a center-left candidate.

The thing about Bi-Partisanship is that it requires BOTH parties working together. For the past year neither side has accomplishing this, so don't try to blame this all on "NObama" when the G"NO"P is just as guilty. Let's be honest shouting out to the PRESIDENT "You Lie!" clearly is the best step forward for Bi-partisanship.

The best was when the Health care bill was trying to get passed in the Senate Committee

Dems: Here is our plan. We outnumber you, so it really doesn't matter what you think.
Repubs: We don't like it.
Dems: Oh shit, they don't like it. What are we going to do?
Repubs: Incorporate more of our plan.
Dems: Whoa, you mean embrace bi-partisanship. This could actually work. What does your plan say?
Repubs: Uhh, it says your plan is stupid and to disagree with everything you propose.
Dems: Well, even though we have a majority, looks like we're all at a deadlock. Can we do anything to move forward?
Repubs: Yes, answer this question: why do you hate America and love illegals?
Dems: Where did that even come from?
Repubs: Don't try to change the subject with your shifty Washington elite ways, answer the question!
Dems: Elite? I drive a Honda Accord.
Repubs: See, if you loved America, you would drive an American car.
Dems: You drive a Mercedes!
Repubs: These photos from Fox News yesterday clearly show I drive a Ford.
Dems: Those photos are from the 1960s, in the summer!
Repubs: Don't try to bring Globa- I mean Climate Change into this!

And look, we still don't have a working health care plan, an economic recovery plan, or a climate change plan from the Dems, and the Republicans answer is still "The Dems plan is communist! BOO!"

the funny thing is, Republicans are claiming that this somehow means they were right about healthcare reform all along...except congressional republicans actually have lower approval ratings concerning how they're handling the health care issue.
 
why yes Ted, it does.
