...President Obama ran into a stone wall of Republican opposition. But didn't the Democrats have a filibuster-proof Congress they meant to ram down the throats of those who objected, for whatever reason? Your article made it seem as if the Republicans were the only bad guys, when actually it was all of them. Alan Cannon Sr. Anderson...

"We wanted to take advantage of this opportunity of the President coming to town to really make a point that the spending has to stop, the debt has to come down, and that the government health care takeover needs to be shelved," says Nate Strauch, Norton's press secretary, who says Bennet's policies are "in lockstep" with the President's.
