WH: Obama is clearly a 'centrist'

White House Press Secretary Jay Carney believes that President Obama has “a centrist agenda,” and he seems to doubt the existence of a plausible counterargument from the Republican Party.

Carney told reporters today that Obama has proposed “what is by any clear-eyed definition a very common-sense, centrist agenda.” He criticized Republicans for “the obstructionist approach” they have taken to the president’s policies.
