"If Democrats win back the House, this guy gets all the credit".
http://americablog.blogspot.com/...
Thus declares John Aravois over at his blog, Americablog.com. "This guy" being Rahm Emmanuel. Aravois even labels a photo attached to his post of a snow-capped mountan peak, "Mount Rahm".
Anyone who visits Americablog knows John to be a passionate, if not sometimes hyperbolic (but that's his charm) guy. Seems Rahm has John Aravois's fancy now, everyone else be damned.
Too bad none of Aravois's readers agree with his declaration (ok, only one or two out of 85 posts agree with him). The comments take John to task for not giving credit to others, such as Dean, the grassroots, the netroots, the 50-state strategy, etc...
Aravois chimes in again in the comments section, giving his commenters a piece of his now well-known "petulantly pissy" hissy fits:
Aravois: "Rahm fucking rocks. That's my opinion. It's about time we had someone with some balls and brains running our election strategy. Rahm and Schumer fucking rock, and I'm not afraid to say it. And if you're not interested in reading a fascinating profile we link to, then leave. No one is forcing you to stay."
My, oh my.... Perhaps I go to his site as much for the drama as for his content.
Ok, John, you can say so, but we still don't agree with you and have no idea how the calculating centrist like Rahm Emmanuel has SO stolen your heart especially over so many other deserving Democrats.
But onwards, beyond our intra-family squabble. Let's do the work to be sure that we DO win the house. We can assign praise afterwards.
