Charles Krauthammer: I have a warning for Republicans: Don't underestimate Barack Obama. (Congress, health care)

[Frozenyo]

"In the political marketplace, there's now a run on Obama shares. The left is disappointed with the president. Independents are abandoning him in droves. And the right is already dancing on his political grave, salivating about November."

"I have a warning for Republicans: Don't underestimate Barack Obama."

"Consider what he has already achieved. Obamacare alone makes his presidency historic. It has irrevocably changed one-sixth of the economy, put the country inexorably on the road to national health care and, as acknowledged by Senate Finance Committee Chairman Max Baucus but few others, begun one of the most massive wealth redistributions in U.S. history.


"Second, there is major financial reform, which passed Congress on Thursday. Economists argue whether it will prevent meltdowns and bailouts as promised. But there is no argument that it will give the government unprecedented power in the financial marketplace."

For once I agree with this turd. I, on the other hand, hope republicans continue to underestimate Obama as they did in 2008. By the looks of things republicans haven't learned.

To the parts in bold....you must be so proud. Pat yourself on the back for the transformation of America and the growing, ever more powerful government. You know you couldve just moved to Venezuela or somewhere instead of inflicting that disease on the greatest country on Earth.

He's one of the most intelligent pundits out there. Career republicans should remain cautious and fearful of not only Obama, but of the Tea Party and libertarian candidates as well. People are fed up to the gills with Bush's third term in office, and it's time for REAL change, not Obama's hopey-changey crap.
