Not really. Obama started out of the gate as being a president for one side, not for the country. He saw his two majorities and took them for granted... he thought he didn't need to be a unifying president. That sorta floundered when he could barely even pass Obamacare with those two majorities. Obama could've tried a little harder.
Talk about revisionist history.
Obama's problem was he tried to be this unifying President at the expense of results. I think he learned last year that people don't really care about bipartisanship, they care about results.
