29. Yup.

He was dealt a surrealistically difficult hand when he came into office. He's got Republicans in a solid bloc, backed up by DINOs, tying his hands in every possible way at every possible turn. And the teabaggers have everybody's panties in a wad so Republicans are being even more obstructionist than they would have been otherwise, and even Democrats are scared to support him too visibly because of the lunatics on the right.

I admit that I had expected things to be better by this point, but I didn't expect so many people to be so actively trying to hamstring him at every turn.
