1. Ed was on fire, and right, as usual. nt

2. Rocktivity on DU: "Mr. President, don't worry about GOING left or right

Just DO what's right for ALL Americans--not just the ones who can supply you with campaign contributions and cushy jobs and hookers!"

3. Go Ed!!! eom

4. He supported Sestak (and Lincoln) because he needs their votes in the Senate.

I don't understand why the pundits and people act like that isn't obvious.

5. you mean specter?

[Pirate Smile]

7. Ha - yes, of course.

[O is 44]

6. I know it blows the mind but oh well anything to knock

the President. Oh well he can take it. I'm sure he has the ignore button on.

[laughingliberal]

10. Pretty sure he's had the 'ignore' button on for the left since November 5, 2008.

Might be time to take us off ignore.

[tsuki]

8. Because it is a lose/lose situation for the President. He pisses off

Sestak supporters for getting involved in the primary and telling who to vote for. He pisses off Specter voters for not keeping his promise and doing enough. The net gain for the President - he pissed off a lot of people.

9. The gain was getting Specter's vote in the Senate for the past year when he needed it.

He couldn't wait until January 2011 for it.

11. Don't fear the left! Embrace it! nt
