The reason Obama couldn't get anything done was the filibuster. The Republicans plan was to make sure nothing got done, and then blame the Democrats for it. And it worked to a certain sense. They did it for so damn long that the people aren't blaming the Democrats any more, but are blaming everyone in DC. Hello Trump! Go Trump! Go! They got the prize at the end of the rainbow. Too bad it turned out to be a booby prize.

In Obama first year, the Republicans filibustered a jobs bill with 10% unemployment. The Republicans are a real peoples party.

No one can succeed, when one party does everything possible to make sure that that doesn't happen.
