This interview with Bill Maher explains what the Obama/Democrat problem seems to be.

On his television show, Maher frequently goes overboard, perhaps to make his show exciting.  In this interview with Fareed Zakaria on CNN, he calmly discusses his opinion.

When will Obama and the Democrats draw a line in the sand that is not to the right of their own bargaining position.  Apparently they don’t know about the bargaining principal of asking for more and compromising in the middle.  They only know about telegraphing their own bottom line and then compromising from there.
