How Obama Screwed Up

...by surrounding himself by the wrong people (Rahm, Geithner, Sommers, etc.) and cozying up to Wall Street, Big Pharma, the generals...gawd...why can't he see it?

"The irony of the Massachusetts election results is they show that Independents and the Progressive base are demanding the same thing--an answer to the real anger in our country about why Wall Street is still flush and Main Street is still struggling," said Ilyse Hogue of the progressive advocacy group MoveOn.org. "People voted for change in 2008, and still believe in President Obama's vision. But voters see Wall Street bonuses unchecked and health care stocks soaring alongside record foreclosures and continuing job losses. Voters want the change they were promised. It's not about independent or right or left--Americans want to see bold leadership from the party in power and a willingness to challenge the corporate control of our government."
