He's got majorities that no President has enjoyed since Johnson and he still can't move legislation. That's indicative of staff weakness. That's what de-railed Carter. Reagan got legislation passed with Tip O'Neill running congress. Of course, he had Jim Baker. Obama has Chicago people who are coming from a play to play approach where you just buy off the legislature. In D.C you can buy some but not all of the votes you need. Money is unpersuasive if people are afraid for their political lives. He needs to clean house.

I've got to agree. Rahm is a bulldog, and he's over the top. Even Obama knows it. When roasting hm prior to the election, Obama referred to an accident Rahm had while working at a fast food restaurant back in the day: "Rahm lost part of his middle finger, rendering him mute." Exactly.
Axlerod is out to make money. AKPD is going to be this administration's Haliburton:

Frankly the Obama administration scares me right now. This kind of defecit spending is out of control, and many in his own party are saying "slow down and listen to us."
I hope he's enjoying his vacation.
