>>he can’t do this.
Don’t matter, he’s trying to save face, after all, Feinstein got a hair across her butt and came out for seating Burris after being dissed by Obie on Panetta.
Lawdy, Dawg, lookit the bright side.
3 Scandals, a Cabinet appointee folds, and a mess about his, Obie’s, barely warmed Senate seat.
Look how he’s folded so quick on everything, jettisoning anyone and anybody under the bus. Blago, his own seat, resigning before the end of the session, unlike Clinton or Biden.
Blago got tossed on a dubious indictment (Fitzie now wants 3 more months, why bust Blago with handcuffs at home at 6 AM then), Obama didn’t want Burris in the seat or didn’t come out strongly for him, vacillating and crawdaddying again IMO, despite the much vaunted skilful, savvy pragmatism touted by his touts.
Richardson got tossed without as much of a nice knowingya. Ya think the Clintons got their revenge on him after Bill Clinton kissed his arse publicly on TV seeking his endorsement?
Obie’s gonna fold on Burris, the spectacle of a black man denied his rightful Senate seat doesn’t reflect well on the new postracial ObamaTime.
Man, this is far more entertaining that I envisioned.
And we got two more weeks til the swearing in.
