Remember the rhetoric? He was from outside the Beltway, although quite deeply inside the Chicago Machine. He was a breath of fresh air; a change from politics as usual; the new visions of folks not deeply enmeshed in the nasty side of Washington.
That's why it was so strange and surprisingly unremarked upon, when the Messiah chose Joe Biden as his running mate. Not much change with a guy who snagged a carpet-bagger seat in the Senate 32 years ago and has been there ever since. No, but maybe that was an aberration. Change we could believe in was coming.
So, for Chief of Staff we've got Rahm Emmanuel. Remember him? A close Clinton confidant whose reward for loyal service as black bag hit-man was a safe seat in Congress. OK, maybe just a fluke. Change is really what it's about.
Oops, John Podesta on the White House staff? Remember him from the Clinton years? How about the others in the show-and-tell lineup at the "press conference" the other day? Paul Volker? Not a new face. Robert Reich? Still not a change. And, how about the potential of John Kerry at State?

When you raise these questions with the Obamaniacs they seem to block it out, like they are in denial. Can't put it any clearer than this: "Hey, boys and girls, Obama is a neo-lib/socialist, get it? He's owned by the trans-national banks. He is not pro-labor, and he sure ain't nobody's sweetheart! If you wanted somebody with a broad liberal outlook and a sense of country, a sense of nation, a sense of place, then you should have voted for McCain."
