POTUS playing 3D chess, while the GOP seniors play checkers
How'd that work out for you? I love ya man but we've been up against this for years and you can never reach these people. Comprising with the GOP didn't work.
Good lord, the hoops they jump through.

1. 3D? What is this, grade school?
The truth is, Obama plays 4D chess. Once you see things on a four dimensional plane, you'll realize what a tremendous win we had on Tuesday.
Easy there, EOTE...thou shall not make fun of the other DUmpmonkiez.

2. That doesn't help if the other side is playing a different game.
with wildly different rules.
I wouldn't shut up when threatened with Ft. Leavenworth, I won't shut up now.
Alot of JRRT names running around DU. The last sentence makes me wonder if the hobbit is anti-war, pro-ghey, or what.

Too late.
He bet the House on while holding only a pair of jokers.

Yep, that unpublished Harvard Law Review editor, smartest president in the history of the world, is so far ahead of us mere mortals. It is sheer genius to lose the 'Kennedy seat' or have centuries of democrat seniority wiped out in 20 months. The whole losing the House by a historical record of the last century and then heading out on a two hundred million dollar junket after those accomplishments is just too hyper smart.
Up is down, left is right, and black is white.
BTW, your chocolate ration has been increased from thirty to twenty-five grams.

Don't forget, he also lost his own old seat in Illinois, to Kirk.

Maybe there's something in my water, but I can see how they would think that this monumentous asskicking would be a win for them. There's two ways, actually--1) They didn't lose the Senate; and 2) They think that Obama will be re-elected due to "Republican 'obstructionalism.'"
What they fail to realize is that even though the Republicans can just defund Obamacare, they can't stop the tax increases from taking place. That would require a veto-proof Senate majority, which are two things that the Republicans will work on for 2012.
No, the most they can do is to defund the thing via the House of Representatives, which is where all of the spending legislation has to come from, by the Constitution. It can't be repealled . . .
. . . yet. But it will be repealled.

Mitch McConnell has been talking about repealing it in whole or piece by piece if necessary.

I don't get it - how does one play 3D, 4D, or 27D chess using a teleprompter?

By doing the same thing they always do.
By playing with themselves.

Given enough JD, you can play anything.

4. Well, this OP didn't work out for me.
I know that much.
Sorry.
EDIT to CLARIFY: We're all disappointed and nobody will (honestly) argue that Tuesday was a joy and that the White House communication strategy is flawless. But the whole "chess" / "no compromise" thing is so over-done. What do you recommend?
I find this interesting because this primitive is one of the 100% Dear Leader worshipping BOGgers and is some poly sci prof at a second rank college in the Atlanta area. Naturally, he can see what Dear Leader is doing in ways the rest of us just can't, including many of his fellow primitives, and he's gone to great lengths to tell them this. Now, after the election results shows that Dear Leader didn't exactly pass the exam, he still wants to argue that his methods weren't to blame, it was those who were grading the test that weren't smart enough to realize his answers were brilliant.
IOW, the dimwit jeff primitive is a dolt.

After enough bong hits, it becomes a "multi-dimensional" chess game. :thatsright:
