This is how pragmatism wins...

...it works!!!!

Power games don't work because in order to attack pragmatic solutions, they have to be based on lies. Dogmatic idealism doesn't work because it is never achievable. 

President Obama has succeeded because his North Star has always been to fight for policies that work for the American people. Sometimes you have to keep your eye on the long game in order to see that. But for those of us who have consistently been able to do that - this is ONE SWEET DAY!!!!
