Sen. Durbin admits: Obama "Jobs" bill unpopular even with Democrats

During his speech earlier this month, Pres. Obama commanded Congress to "pass this bill" some 17 times. Apparently, he hadn't checked to see even whether the Democrats would support the bill. The Hill reports:

Senate Majority Whip Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said, at the moment, Democrats in Congress don’t have the votes to pass President Obama’s jobs bill, but Durbin added that that situation would change. 

If any more proof was needed that Obama was never serious about the Jobs bill, this is it.
