Fire Robert Gibbs...Or At Least Make Him Apologize to Howard Dean

"Is this the beginning of Obama's version of Clinton-era triangulation?"



I think it's safe to say that the triangulation "officially" began the moment he brought in rahm and the rest of the clintonista crew to run the ship.



Obama is clearly very comfortable using his bully pulpit to call out Democrats. He has also hit the Repugs, to be sure. But he heaps adulation on the "moderates." I can see that he absolutely wants control of K street and keep the money flowing from lobbyists. I can only conclude that he's going to continue the divide and conquer strategy employed by clintonistas and their offspring (DLC) to help kick incumbent, progressive Dems out of Congress and promote players (even if it means losing to repugs).
