It is shocking to the average person - we expect leaders to know what is going on, especially with such a huge new entitlement affecting 1/6 of our national economy. However, this president has shown time and again that he has little interest in governing or managing his team but an abundance of interest in campaigning around the country to rev up the base.
He left the legislative process up to Pelosi and Reid with little guidance. Obama had a majority in Congress and felt no obligation to work with the GOP. With the one party reign, he knew he had his legacy assured. Little did he realize it would backfire.
