"President Obama tucked away the Clinton doctrine [of no more big government] in his large drawer of discarded ideas, along with transparency and birpartisanship. It's enough to make you wonder if maybe it was a personal beef with the Clintons. Probably, it runs much deeper than that."
—Mitt Romney

Yeah, he has a personal beef with the Clintons, that's why he appointed the former First Lady to be Sec State. Interesting that he talks about Obama discarding the doctrine of no more big gov't and doesn't talk about Bush first trashing it and destroying the surplus that Clinton was building up.

In order to have bipartisanship, you must have the cooperation of BOTH parties, and clearly he has made some efforts to reach out to the proverbial other side of the aisle and they will have nothing to do with anything if they don't get tax cuts for the wealthy and spending cuts for any social programs. When an elected member of the RNC says that the best thing the democrats can do is come over to the republican way of thinking (or lack thereof), then there is very little hope for bipartisanship.
