Wait and see if the mood of his supporters redirects his opinion. This will make candidates who are outside of DC look more attractive to conservatives and more competitive to those who supported Obama’s privileges, given to him by this vote.

He doesn't need to change his opinion.
Many of his supporters are covering for him, and explaining away his behavior.
And when that doesn't work they're ridiculing those who dare to speak out.

Of course he might change his opinion after making sure that enough democrats will be voting with the republicans.
