Accommodating the GOP is not the same as working with the GOP.
Bill Clinton knew how to work with politicians of all stripes to forge bipartisan coalitions. Obama works "at" the GOP: He gives them what they want without actually doing any of the maneuvering. From the outside looking in, it feels a lot like Obama has been in Washington for six years without ever having made even one useful relationship. Maybe that has more to do with his failure to control the message, but that's still a significant failure if true.
