I think the key word in your post is "attempted." And the attempt is failing. Popular opinion won't allow Obama's vision of America to be realized because it's simply not shared by the majority. Not even close, I don't think. If it were, then maybe we could claim to be on the same road as Britain, but it's not.
And your last paragraph is absolutely true, of course, though not for all of his supporters. If America rejects Obama's plans, then I for one am willing to accept that they weren't right for the country. (When I said that they could be of benefit, I should have added the condition that they be accepted by the public.)
Perhaps it's a toe-may-toe, toe-mah-toe thing...you see Obama's election as a sign that we're edging towards socialism, while I see the rejection of his administration as a sign that we're not.
