John Podesta predicts White House 'soul-searching'

By: Andy Barr September 7, 2010 11:55 AM EDT

John Podesta, the president of the Center for American Progress and leader of Barack Obama’s presidential transition team, expects to see some “soul-searching” and “changes” in the White House after November’s election.

With Democrats expected to lose dozens of seats in the midterms – and possibly control of Congress – Podesta believes Obama will have make changes to adapt to the new political environment.

“After November you'll see some soul-searching and some changes particularly in the way that he's talked to the American people and really communicated particularly I think with the business community,” Podesta said Tuesday morning on MSNBC.

“You'll see I think at least a willingness to kind of listen to ideas to move forward with people,” he added. “And you know, I think that the president does level with people. He's pretty straight-forward about what he thinks works, what he thinks doesn't.”

What he thinks is always wrong. Soul searching for Obama would be admission his socialist ideas have never worked and reversing the damage he has done.

He will never do that. He seeks to destroy.

Obama won’t find his soul unless he’s allowed to search in Satan’s lockbox.

I interpret that as after November anyone with a pragmatic or centrist bone in their body is going under the bus, and that Barry will load-up on Progressive True Believers to rail against those eeeeeeevil Republicans and to fire up his base.
Since none of that stuff will pass a GOP Congress anyway, might as well make a good show if it, eh?
