It also implies that Obama has been irrelevant, which couldn't be further from the truth.

Not to mention the only-in-the-valley idea that he would try and improve his popularity with the American people as a whole through an issue that the vast majority of people neither understand nor care about.

On the contrary, I said he was the reason why everything was put in motion in the first place. If anything I questioned his initial motives. If you follow politics you'd know what was the mood in the WH right after Obama lost the senate and how he felt the need to reassert himself. A lot of good has come from that.

Wheeler of course will give a self-serving explanation about the whole thing and since he is now "on our side" people will easily forget how he dragged his feet for months and months until Obama (along with increased pressure from the public) prodded him to take the net neutrality stance.
