I think you need to go back and listen to the show again. While this WAS the position of Smiley, it most certainly was NOT the position of Scarborough. Scarborough said that he "can" force the issue, but never that he "should". In fact he said quite the opposite at the end when asked what the President "should" do. He said the President should get the liberals (Pelosi, Waxman) together with the moderates (McCaskill, Bayh) and then lead them to a compromise rather than force through a strictly liberal agenda.
