President Obama has "Political Capital"

Heh. I love stuff like President Obama justifying his positions by saying "I won" and stories like this:

Nearly seven in ten Americans approve of the way President Barack Obama is doing his job, giving him enormous political capital as he pushes Congress to give him unprecedented tools to fight economic crisis, according to a new McClatchy-Ipsos poll.

Spend that political capital, Mr. President (and by all indications, you are spending it like a congressional stimulus). Be President Bush, President Obama. Spend that arrogant political capital. See where it gets you the next four years after your hubris hits the brick wall of reality.
