Game Change authors Halperin and Heilemann quote Democratic party leaders as labeling Hillary Clinton “polarizing” to justify their back-stabbing defection to Obama in 2008. But over at the Boston Globe, we learn that after his first year as president, Barack Obama is admitting his failure to unite the country:
"President Barack Obama says he has not succeeded in bringing the country together, acknowledging an atmosphere of divisiveness that has washed away the lofty national feeling surrounding his inauguration a year ago.
"That's what's been lost this year ... that whole sense of changing how Washington works," Obama said in an interview with People magazine.
Indeed, recent polls indicate that Obama is the most polarizing president in modern history, so we gently remind readers that SoS Clinton’s popularity has soared this past year with support from both parties and independents, and we have to ask Democratic party leaders who’s polarizing now?
