...expected the worst. Obama hoped for bipartisan support but knew his expansive goals for expanded coverage would make it a challenge. He knew that the press coverage would emphasize setbacks and discord over progress. He knew it would be necessary to publicly downplay his sway over Congress's committee process while laboring behind the scenes to keep the Hill on track in timing and substance.

Republicans don't want to hand Obama a victory; even before they lost their supermajority, Democrats didn't want to repeat the ugly get-to-60 process that squeezed health care reform through the Senate.
