According to one Democrat strategist quoted in this report,
"The ineptitude of the White House political operation has sunk from
annoying to embarrassing." And they're far from alone in the growing
criticism of Obama's White House.
Most know of Michelle Obama's now infamous gaffe with regard to the
name of Iowa Dempocrat and Senate candidate, Bruce Braley. She
repeatedly referred to him as "Bruce Bailey" while stumping for him. But
that incident didn't end there. The White House press office didn't
even seem to know for which office he is running.
The relationship between the White
House and Senate Democrats hit a new low Tuesday evening after the
administration's press office released a transcript of first lady
Michelle Obama's appearance in Iowa on behalf of Democratic Senate
candidate Bruce Braley. The problem: The subject line of the e-mail
referred to Braley as the "Democratic candidate for governor."
Plus, there's now more than Barack Obama's current unpopularity for this.
President
Obama hasn't been invited to campaign in any battleground Senate races,
with the exception of Michigan, where Democrats have long held a
comfortable lead. Instead, he's spent most of his time headlining
fundraisers for the Democratic campaign committees.
Between insisting he and his policies are on the ballot in November
even as his fellow Democrats try to distance themselves from him - and
also recently saying how they all have consistently supported him, in
essence, despite the campaign rhetoric, it may not be longer before
Democrats are the ones calling for Obama's impeachment in an effort to
save their own skins come November.
