The Observer’s Jason Horowitz wrote a great article about Obama being a bully since Hillary dropped out of the race. This is just the kind of Democrat we need this year…
Add to their aggressive tactics an enormous financial advantage, a favorable political climate and lots of adrenaline pumping after an unexpected primary victory, and one remarkable thing becomes clear: This year, it’s the Democrat who’s shaping up to be the bully.
“It feels great,” said Simon Rosenberg, the president of the New Democrat Network who was a young staffer in Bill Clinton’s famed 1992 war room. “Look—the Democrats have basically been without a strong single leader since [the Monica Lewinsky scandal in] early 1998.”
I love this quote too.
“He has got a killer instinct, but he has a cool anger, not a hot anger,” said Michael Bauer, a Chicago-based bundler for Mr. Obama. “It’s a real grit, not an issue of ripping someone’s face off. It’s ‘this is what we are going to do,’ and then getting it done.”
