US VS. THEM:
Trouble on the Left (Kenneth T. Walsh, 5/08/15, US News)
Democratic strategists say that few of the party's legislators share a personal bond with Obama. They believe he puts his interests ahead of theirs, seeking to burnish what he considers his legacy on trade, Iran and other issues even if those policies hurt rank-and-file Democrats in tough elections. So his promises of political help tend to fall flat.
The Heritage mandate, the WoT and trade--which is why, from a historical perspective, it will be his continuity with the Bushes that is most remarked upon.
