Michelle Obama’s father was not simply a “blue collar worker.” I am sure that Axelrod chose that description since it played better with focus group panelists and likely independents than a “political patronage employee.”

Michelle’s dad was a precinct captain who was rewarded with a political job in return for hustling votes.

Hillbuzz says that some Black Leaders in Chicago have indicated that Axelrod has given up. This is all just for show.
