Obama should trade Berneke for House passage of Senate HCR.
A possible grand bargain to get HCR done:

Replace Bernake with someone who will focus on job creation. The left can claim that as a victory.

In exchange, House libs pass the Senate HCR bill and get whatever changes are possible through reconciliation.

Everyone wins in that scenerio! It's a victory for Obama and the Dems when they need one, it's a very populist message, it's got everything!

1. I think that LBJ would have made that kind of deal.
