Support will only undermine his strategy, and you’re going to see a lot more of his efforts get flittered away as he shifts ever rightward, hoping to disillusion someone enough to stop following him to give him someone to triangulate. Your blind support only serves to deny him the desired position at the top of the pyramid, and left him, instead, at the top of a vertical line.

Clearly, in the face of so much good will and support among his supporters, if Obama wants to accomplish healthcare and anything else in the future, he either needs to a) pursue a strategy that relies on the faith of his supporters as opposed to their cynicism, or b) appeal to his supporters to get off-board and stymie him at every turn.

Until then, if you support Obama - if you really support Obama -- you'd oppose him.
