8. Dem Party lost house and senate in 1994. No law is the work of one man

Joseph Biden voted for the Telecommunications Act, as did John Kerry, and Edward Kennedy.

Too many Dems just want to pretend that only presidential politics is important. They act politics is like some 4 year cicada cycle.

Democrats elected a president in 1992, then lost the Congress.

"The 1994 elections resulted in Republicans gaining 54 House and 9 U.S. Senate seats. When the Republicans gained this majority of seats in the 104th Congress, the Contract (with America) was seen as a triumph by party leaders such as Minority Whip Newt Gingrich, Dick Armey, and the American conservative movement in general".

Very similar to what happened two years after Obama was elected.

Each president tried a different strategy for coping with the loss of power in congress--

If Dems continue to just see political as getting a man in at the top, we will continue to lose power. It's convenient to attack the president as Good/Bad. It is for some reason, a lot tougher to face the reality of our political system and make it work for the people.
