Hill Democrats miffed at Obama

The audacity of Obama!

Funny, though, how they're blaming "low-level staffs" for spreading this. All the head Dems are obviously all on the same page.


Oh! and this part was really cute (scroll down near the end):
Quote:
Brian Wolff, the DCCC’s executive director, said that some of the “supposed arrogance” coming from the Obama camp is in reality a misinterpreted sense of confidence in the campaign’s plan for winning the Oval Office, including grass-roots mobilization, in-state political infrastructure, messaging and get-out-the vote operations.

“They have to set the tone, and they are setting the tone,” Wolff said. “Arrogance is sometimes mistaken for competence. I think having a real competent approach to your campaign, whether it’s field [operations] or politics, or overall message, I think it’s really important. ... They’re really doing a really good job at this.”
If I'm not mistaken - Dubya was considered an arrogant, red-neck dunce. But Obamamessiah's arrogance exudes confidence & competence.

No spin there!

Freudian slip? I think not, because it is stating teh current situation. The dude is arrogant to a fault.

Extremely so. He has been elected and re-elected to the highest office in the nation, he has avoided major personal scandal despite the best efforts of his political enemies, he has responded appropriately to a major, unanticipated crisis which his predecessor left him. Yes, I'd say that is much more competent than a failure-to-launch, 20-something who still lives with his parents and who remains in an entry-level custodial job.

This from the one sitting in mommy & daddy's basement complaining about the cost of gas & insurance for his brand new car.
