Imagine if Obama and Congress had passed election reform laws instead. I remember political gossip on this site - "unnamed Democratic Party officials" - said that they thought acknowledging GOP election fraud would depress Democratic voter turnout. Voter suppression tactics aren't new to the GOP, what is new is the Democrats refusal to oppose them. Without a Democratic majority it's difficult to pass anything regardless of who is top of the ticket, something that Clinton supporters refuse to acknowledge(she knows how to get things done, she knows how to fight that fight, etc.).

With strong Democratic majorities, we could have at the very least discussed Single Payer and other forms of universal coverage. Those option were "off the table". In part because of weak majorities that depend on Democratic politicians who side with Republicans when we need their votes the most. That sort of majority isn't useful except for legislation favored by Big Business who own politicians on both sides of the aisle.
