The striking unions are not turning on Obama. They and Obama both see the strike as moving forward..advancing the cause. Part of two steps forward, one step back is that when the strikers push two steps forward, they give Obama the opportunity for a Sister Souljah moment in which he can look moderate. Imagine if Rahm were to settle the strike and let Obama come in and take the credit. Imagine if the ballerina were just choreographing this dance?
The union bosses will never turn on the Democratic Party, unless the latter turns on the former. The rank and file, on the other hand, only know that the Liberal Messiah has sent one of His apostles and that this apostle has now become their enemy.
At this point, if the Liberal Messiah tries to come to the rescue, it will more likely do Him harm than good. People are cynical enough that even if this isn't staged, they will be very suspicious if the Liberal Messiah gets involved.
That ain’t gonna happen.
This looks more like the Democrats are in total disarray and that Rahm the Wonder Horse is not going to help The Disaster.
He provoked this strike it appears and all this energy has been diverted from working on The Disaster’s campaign. Plus, he has dropped out of The Disaster’s campaign organization. The PAC he is working with now will probably be used to further his own designs.
This looks like he thinks The Disaster is going to lose.
