In election's shadow, rally draws laughs, activism

It's also incontrovertible that Obama, RahmEmanuel, the DLC, DavidAxelrod, DavidPlouffe, all have worked their butts off to PREVENT real progressives getting into office. One example right off the bat is BlancheLincoln.



The WhiteHouse put its full weight & support behind Blue Dog BlancheLincoln over the true progressive candidate in the primary, union-backed Lt. GovernorBillHalter.



This wasn't unlike when Obama made a deal with ArlenSpecter & put the full weight &support of the Democratic machine behind Specter during the 2010 primary in Pennsylvania, trying to buy off (among other alternative candidates Democratic voters in PA might have wanted to vote to have representing them) JoeSestak. Consider that -- Obama actively went about trying to prevent Democratic voters from choosing their preferred candidate for the US so that a DINO, Republican ArlenSpecter, could retain the seat.



Last week Obama refused to endorse the (progressive) Democratic candidate for governor in Rhode Island, because Obama "doesn't want to offend" the Independent candidate, LincolnChaffee. One effect of that is the suppression of the Democratic turnout in Rhode Island, thus risking PatrickKennedy's seat going 'R' (Kennedy is leaving the House, not running for reelection).



If you're still thinking Obama's not working at cross purposes with progressives & liberals, and you should keep supporting Obama & the DLC no matter what, how are you NOT the classic definition of '!nsane'?
