White House: Emanuel to Blame for Tuesday Electoral Disaster
Pundit Press ^ | 11/5/10 | Aurelius

Posted on 11/05/2010 3:22:54 PM PDT by therightliveswithus

On Tuesday, Democrats lost more than 60 House seats and over half-a-dozen Senate seats in a historical election. Most analysts and people blame the President and/or the policies that were pursued in the last few years by Democrats. The White House has another idea: it's all Rahm Emanuel's fault.

Emanuel was President Obama's Chief of Staff before he resigned slightly over a month ago to run for mayor in Chicago. Sources inside the White House blame Emanuel for devising a strategy for the Democrats this election cycle that failed. It was exasperated, they say, when he left for Chicago:

“It was Rahm’s strategy and then he leaves a month before the election for his own personal political career. It’s extraordinary.”

On top of it all, some of the President's aides also say that Emanuel's departure has lasting effects, blaming him already if things go south for the Administration in coming months. They say that Obama cannot "orchestrate a dramatic staff shakeup" without Emanuel.

But....but.....he’s NOT!

Oh, well. Maybe Rahm and Obama will meet at Man’s Country and “make up” on the “Won’s” next vacation to Chicago.

Democrats always blame their losses on “not getting their message out” or “people were too stupid to understand that what we were doing was for their best”...blah, blah, blah! We GOT YOUR MESSAGE and it was REJECTED! Enough Americans got a PINK SLIP to understand that it is past time to start GIVING OUT PINK SLIPS TO THOSE WHO REALLY DESERVE TO BE FIRED! And with Obummer in office for 2 more years, there is still LOTS MORE PINK SLIPS TO BE HANDED OUT...
