Wtf do you think they could have done? Plenty of states have had voter initiatives and legislation protecting abortion rights.
I really get sick of the "both sides" garbage.
At this point the both sides people are actively supporting the GOP. All they do is try and stop progress while simultaneously complaining that the Democrats don't get anything done. They care more about being an enlightened centrist than they do helping people and it shows.

Yeah they had the votes and time to pass one major piece of legislation while they held 60 seats and they passed the Affordable Care Act and Patient Protection Plan.
If conservatives weren't fighting literally anything that needs to get done, it would be done. It's not a both sides issue, it never was, this is purely conservative talking points. The Democrats not having enough support and political capital to get past the onslaught of GOP bullshit is only reason to support them even more. Apathy and the need to say "both sides are bad" is exactly why we're in this position.
I'm not on either side. I'm not even American. And you are in this position because you vote the same people who make the same promises over and over and over again. Vote on someone new, who doesn't have 50 page record on breaking every single promise given. No matter the side you choose. Or just remove money from politics and suddently everyone resigns.
