This is feedback. This is making diamond clear the difference between the progressive talking Obama, the activist, and the champion of change (vs.) the DLC/Carvilleized Obama, the Nancy Pelosi in slacks Obama, and the squeaking mouse dem/republican.
Someone once said people much prefer to vote to for Republicans than Democrats who act like Republicans, such as the "reborn" Obama, the status quo supporter Obama, and the Obama who has totally turned his back on his dynamic, progressive base.
This guy has turned into a mugwump. Mug on the right of center side and very little wump on the other side. What he's trying to do is make everyone happy. He's changed into archetypal democrat who has no moral or rational stand about ANYTHING, and we all know what happens to archetypal democrats, don't we? They turn into Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi. Even worse, they turn into Joe Lieberman.
Obama talks like the primaries never even happened. For awhile, it was OK because you could write off his squeaking as possibly the political chess game you have to play to get support from the center.
But he's gone far, FAR beyond that. He's turned into a clone of the dem/republican congress. He's turned into a clone of those unforgivable traitors to the constitutional and moral soul of America. Plus, it's like he's lost all his nerve. He doesn't speak out strongly about ANYTHING. No, just those catatonic "lectures" that are the answer to Republican prayers.
"Change", the guy probably can't even spell the word anymore. Was he in some kind of trance during the primaries or is he in some kind of trance now?
OK, back to the good part of this. If what's happening now doesn't convince him that he should fire all his mousey, dem/pug "advisors", nothing will.
What should he start doing IMMEDIATELY. He should go back to progressive policies and the passion for change. Change, change, change -- that's what he should be talking about, not all these gutless, immoral "compromises" with the devil. Leave that to the dem/put congress and the "leaders" of the house and senate. They've been doing NOTHING BUT THAT for the last 4 years, so to hell with them all.
