This is why Georgie is a tv talking head now, instead of a high level political advisor. Kind of hard to intimidate the party who stands to benefit from public opinion if they play their cards even halfway right.

But the only way Obama can do that is to accuse the Republicans of racism. That seems to be the only 'weapon' Obama has. And even hollering racism is getting to be a tired tactic.

Intimidate them into what? Using what threat?

The Republicans have very little power to shape legislation, the Democrats don’t need them on anything they can get their own party to agree to.

And what are they going to threaten them with, an electoral minority? Been there, doing that.
