Obama: Don't go too far left in 2020

[Mr. Smith]

Advice from the man that threw away thousands of legislative seats, 15 Senate seats, managed to lose his share of the vote for re-election and ultimately couldn't get his horse across the finish line for a third term....curious...very curious.

[Mr. Smith]

I also find it hilarious how Obama gets attacked by the left now. If he said the opposite, moderate Democrats wouldn't slam him the way leftists do.

Yes, yes they would. Complete with claims of helping the Republicans, or being "unrealistic".

What was he supposed to do? In 2010 and 2014, Democrats ran away from him.

He could've made clear the negative consequences for such actions from the start [and who knows, perhaps that would've impressed upon Mitch/Boehner/Cantor not to try any funny business], and he could've stumped like nobody's business in the blue states...I mean besides Braley and Anthony Brown, whom else did he really go after?

[Mr. Smith]

How crazy has the world gotten when Barack Obama, who was on the far left wing of the Democratic Party when he ran in 2008, is somehow the voice of reason in his party?

He wasn't. Not even close. He never occupied the space of Mike Gravel or Dennis Kucinich...or even John Edwards.

And actual record, even Hillary was further left.
