Sure there are some nutcases who are going to believe EVERYTHING the GOP says but more and more people are growing and evolving and to them this GOP opposition does not serve the average person, they want compromise. I believe Obama has taken compromise to a new level. He has not gotten everything we wanted by any means but he got a lot done through compromise DESPITE the GOP opposing him in every way.
