I Thought Obama Was The Uniter?

Here is the offhand remark Obama made regarding his talent to reach out to ABC's John Berman:

"I don't think me calling House Republican members would have been that helpful, I tend not to be that persuasive on that side of the aisle," he said.

Ooops, what happened Mr. O? lost your magic wand? I thought  you were the uniter and that's why you won over Hillary! hmmm
