This is definitely one of those slippery slope, careful what you wish for situations. I can't recall how many times I'd see someone say Obama should been given more power to do what he wanted. But they didn't have any forethought to realize that he wouldn't be in office forever and eventually the other side would have the same power.
Obama cut his own throat.
His refusal to even listen to people of either party on the healthcare legislation doomed him, and his legacy.
After that ramming down the throat, he couldn't even get much democratic support in Congress for things.
That's why so many of his plans were issued by Executive Order. He thought that would be fine, since Clinton would be in office.
But, since she's not, most of the things he did can be undone by Executive order as well.
He thought he was smarter than everyone, and got hoisted on his own petard (ego).....
