Obama's response to the election

Some commentators are responding to Obama's press conference following the election as indicating that Obama still doesn't get what the people want. I have to disagree: he gets it. Obama knows perfectly well what the people want. That was clear from his election campaign. He said all the right things about what people wanted. But that was just to get elected, not what he believed or intended to do. He doesn't care what the people want. He knows what his agenda is, and placating the people is just part of the process to get where he wants to go. He has contempt for the people. Why would he let them tell him what to do?
