While I agree with Ezra and Chris, it is important that Obama is controlling what congress is working on.  The difference is Obama isn't focused on the details, but Obama is completely dominating the big picture.

He is pushing for some details here and there.  For example, from what I read all the credit for congress still considering a public option goes to the White House.

For the most part, though, he isn't involving himself in the day-to-day debates.
