I hope the White House (and Republicans in general) learned a lesson from this: fight fire with fire. Look at the results. No more comprising. No more "new tone."
The only way to change the tone in Washington is to beat down the Democrats into submission. Then the tone will change.

win back the senate he won't have to comprimise till then so of the goodies he wants will be held up in committee,since the house looks like a few seat pickup this fall.
