Obama a "go-along-to-get-along guy?"

Is Barack Obama a go-along-to-get-along guy? That is the thesis today of Holman Jenkins, writing in the Wall Street Journal. Jenkins notes that the only time Obama has ever tried to buck his own party, he lost in his challenge to oust Bobby Rush from his House seat in 2000. Since then, he has chosen the path of least resistance. That has meant going along with Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid. With Pelosi no longer the Speaker of the House, Obama will have other choices and possibilities. Read the whole thing here.

That's saying that Obama never had the power and frankly I'm not buying that. He's just drinking koolaid giving Obama an out.
