Most of the country wanted to deal with costs, not expansion of coverage. This is going to raise costs dramatically.<br \/>\nIn the campaign, he said he would change politics as usual. He did change them. It\u2019s now worse than it was. I\u2019ve now seen the kind of buying off of politicians that I\u2019ve never seen before. It\u2019s politically corrupt and it\u2019s starting at the top. It\u2019s revolting.<br \/>\n&#8230;<br \/>\nOne business leader said to me, \u201cIn the Clinton administration, the policy people were at the center, and the political people were on the sideline. In the Obama administration, the political people are at the center, and the policy people are on the sidelines.\u201d<br \/>\nI\u2019m very disappointed. We endorsed him. I voted for him. I supported him publicly and privately.<br \/>\n&#8230;<br \/>\nLet me tell you what a major leader said to me recently. \u201cWe are convinced,\u201d he said, \u201cthat he is not strong enough to confront his enemy. We are concerned,\u201d he said \u201cthat he is not strong to support his friends.\u201d<br \/>\nThe political leadership of the world is very, very dismayed. He better turn it around. The Democrats are going to get killed in this election. Jesus, looks what\u2019s happening in Massachusetts.<br \/>\n&#8230;<br \/>\nI can\u2019t predict things two years from now, but if he continues on the downward spiral he is on, he won\u2019t be reelected.
