Positive for whom?
Obama is having problems simply because he screwed up this issue and now is unable to redefine the debate. The simple fact is that it's a really hard issue with no easy fix. He should have used his position early on to ram something through, but instead he let Congress be the face of the issue and the GOP had a field day...
What's sad is that there are a lot of good things in the proposals that don't get any media time. The GOP has taken a "just say no" approach that will work in the short-term but isn't good for the people.
Come election time everybody in Congress will suffer...
