Why are Axelrod, Gibbs and Linda looking so "down." Are they Hearing It from the Left who
worked butt's off to ELECT the President...who would be for ALL OF US?

I had MSNBC/CNN on all afternoon..and was doing "Channel Surf" and not One of the THREE...THREE ..Spokespersons the Obama Administration put out there looked like "Happy Campers" riding on a HUGE DEMOCRATIC WIN!

Instead...they all looked "downfaced" as if their bodies were drained of fire...and they were just "serving" their President.

Is it "No Drama Obama" or "Fire in the Belly for Reform Obama?"

WHO DID WE ELECT? And what has gone OFF THE RAILS?

3. Can we wait until we hear what the President has to say tonight?
Be a little optimistic. None of us know what he is going to say. I still have hope that we will end up with reform that we will like.

4. I think they're afraid -
afraid to look too "cheerleaderish," afraid to get hopes up, afraid of the Republicans.

I think they've discovered that the game played in Washington is hardball, and they've been used to softball.................

he acted like a man who didn't believe a word he was saying! It's amazing that two DU'ers could see such difference....

7. No PO will be the last straw for me
It's my line in the sand and I won't vote republican, I just won't work for or give money to any democrats above the local level. Sick and fucking tired of being played all the time.

14. What part of that infantile threat was progressive???
When you want to discuss progressive issues without the hysteria, I'm sure you'll find many willing listeners.

12. mine, too. And it has to be a "real PO" and not some triangulated POS
that our Dems and Repugs haggle over that turns to MUSH once the final bill is done "in the dead of night." I thought we were finished with these "STEALTH BILLS" when Bush tucked out of town after he brought the Financial System to it's Knees...Started TWO WARS...and was the BIGGEST PRESIDENTIAL CRIMINAL we've EVER SEEN...and yet...his LEGACY seems to be so "overwhelming" our Dems COWER in the WAKE OF HIS MAGNIFICENCE! OH ...SAVE ME...from that incredible HUBRIS!
