  • Doyle is one of Axelrod's closest professional friends to back-in-Chicago-day. The Clinton camp has not spoken w/ her since her ouster - incl the Sen. herself. This is a get the hint 'no' to Hil. Whatever her issues Penn should have suffered the same fate at the same time.

  • Gore did not wait too long. When one considers all of the left over acrimony btw him and the Clintons - and the fact that his Climate Change agenda and P-Prize only rile up certain Repubs which may have driven some more oppo-turn-out-effort earlier on - t'was strategically meant to avoid distorting Obama's narrative.

    If he'd endorsed during the primary - it would've dredged up 2 weeks of stories about: did Hil stomp on VP territory during Bill's reign; Gore's choice to not use Bill more prominently during his campaign (turns out he was right); Billary's lackluster effort for him; and for all those potential primary-crossover Obamicans and Indies leftover ire toward any former Clinton admin official.

    Obama's camp & Gore knew that an early endorsement would have diverted too much attn to the past away from Obama's message.

  • Can't tell the snark (aside from insider) - most are saying Doyle a slap & signal no-Clinton-go - seeing as how she's not spoken to anyone in the campaign incl the Sen. since her ousting. That your point?

  • Only prob was Kerrey's "madrassa-educated Muslim" comment while he was a Hil supporter and how much f-raising he's going to do now for Obama.

  • Indeed. Too little, too late - after too much dragging the dregs. You want a pony now? No - don't think so.

    They should lay in the swamp they swished.

  • Thanks for link.

    Ms. Lacewell (who I always enjoy as a guest on Lehrer or Charlie Rose), ran circles around Ms. Steinem in analysis. What was apparent is the mismatch btw someone relying on past sociological/political dogma - coming up against the present (who has a grasp of the now and past -which certain circles chose to tune out).

    That's what happens - you get stale when you don't stay open for the new.
