I am not going to participate in a rating - way too subjective and meritless. However, as to your last point, I would find it hard to fault Obama for failure to build bipartisan cooperation. The limbaughs, norquists, tea party congressmen and the like have vowed to do everything they can to see that he fails. While many presidents have fought bitterly with the opposition, I have never before heard people of influence (some more, some less) proclaim they wished our president to fail. Seems to me to be tantamount to wishing our country to fail so I can't see them as patriots.
