The White House may only have one of its top officials to blame for its difficulty in passing healthcare, one liberal California Democrat asserted Tuesday.

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) blamed now-White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel's work as head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC), during which he worked to recruit many centrist candidates, resulting in landslide Democratic victories, for difficulties facing House leaders trying to pass reform legislation.

"That may be difficult for Rahm Emanuel, because remember, he recruited most of them," Waters said during an interview on MSNBC when asked if the White House could lean on centrist, Blue Dog Democrats to pass reform legislation.

What the ditz from Kalifornia doesn't seem to understand is that if it weren't for Rahm recruiting these centrist/conservative Dems, she would still be a minority.

As much as I hate to admit it, Rahm did a great job with recruitment in 2006. Why are their DINOs always better than our RINOs? :-(

Rahm Emanuel is Howard Dean with a brain. Ezekiel is his evil twin. They are scary individuals.

Her comments bring to light a reality that neither side wants to admit. In order to gain the majority you cannot eschew the people closer to the middle. If you accept them into your tent in order to win then you shouldn’t act surprised when they don’t embrace the parties’ true believers. If you say you don’t want them then the other side takes them and you get a lot worse of a dry screwing.

Ms. Maxine would be well-advised to not cross Rahmbo, I think.

Maxine should have a daily press conference....now that’s entertainment!

It’s great to watch these LibTard gasbags feasting on each other over the schemes included in the mad march to marxism...

Popcorn and cheez-whiz for everyone! Pull up a chair. This will be fun.

It’s time to take back the country.

Oh yes Rahm did an awesome job in Folyizing conservatives just in time for election 2006. Now I can only guess that you are the one that put in paren the When in trouble, blame it on the Joos), as if Rahm can never ever be held to account for his actions because he is a forever untouchable for his religion.
