Obamas problem was that he was insanely naive. You can't change anything without both parties, the house and senate. He's learned the hard way that simply blaming the other guy is not leadership and its a story that grows tiresome quickly.
His party (the democrats) did have complete control of the house, senate and white house for two years. They were running the whole show. They decided to not even pass a budget, so they could wait until after the election and blame the republicans.

Reagan got stuff done with the opposing party in control of both house and senate. Why Obama and his team wouldn't do anything when they had complete control I don't know. Obviously he's inexperienced and lacks leadership ability, but heck Pelosi has both. All Obama had to do was let Pelosi lead while he signed her bills.
