When your team is down by a run or two, you look to a team member to man up and say 'this is the way to go... this is what we should do'. Cory Booker is that man. Private Equity is not and will never be the boogey-man. And our team, Team Obama, should look up from their polls and embrace this young thinker and doer.
Private Equity does in their DNA what Community Organizers do in theirs. And both are good for America.
When your message becomes tinny, super-partisan, and outside the embrace of the all important 'independents' ... you lose.
We, the Cossacks, the Unions, the progressives, the Occupiers... don't have the sheer numbers to win the election without the independents.
more at the fold...
Cory Booker is doing us all a favor in MAY (not October or November, or even worse, in December)
His 'nauseating' call is a call to arms. All of us in this community must entice the independents to continue to vote for Obama.
* cool off the over the top rhetoric (it makes us look so crazy partisan)
* address the record of achievements of this administration.
* remember that fairness, in all respects, is the clarion call of our team
Hey, look, Mr. Booker has a personal agenda just as President Obama had and has.
But his call for keeping the playing field on the up and up, is a cause for celebration.
Sun Zu, said to keep your friends close and your enemies closer. If the community thinks the Booker is a 'frenemey', than embrace him, and keep this rising star closer.
