The book, Game Change, by Mark Halperin and John Heilemann promises all kinds of inside comments and potential gaffs by a slew of Democratic lumenaries as well as others. Some of the comments are revealed in this story.
At the least, we will get some insight as to the low opinion that a lot of old-line, old-time, powerbroker Democrats had and probably still have for Barack Obama. Not only did Obama come out of the blue to knock off Hillary, but he created a whole power base that in many respects is outside the control of the likes of the Clintons and even others such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.
As Obama's poll numbers tumble he is going to likely need the greater Democratic party to help him out for the rest of his first term and for re-election in 2012.
Question is: will the old-line Democrats help this guy who not only has treated them badly but is also single-handedly destroying their party with his leftist-socialist agenda?
Or, will they let him twist in the wind, go down in flames and figure they can pick up the pieces later?
What do you think?
