UPDATE: Matthew Yglesias argues that, with the passage of health care reform, “Barack Obama will go down in history as one of America’s finest presidents” and that “he’s reshaped the policy landscape in a way that no progressive politician has done in decades.” So far, in a little over a year, President Obama has helped keep America from Great Depression Part II and has achieved a victory on health care reform that had eluded presidents, Republican and Democratic, for decades. Not too shabby, and there’s a lot more to come – clean energy, climate change, immigration, education, financial reform. If President Obama gets all of those done, he’d seriously be in the ranks of the greatest, most transformative U.S. Presidents.
