Casino67 Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 CNN:Washington (CNN) -- White House senior adviser David Axelrod is looking for a silver lining in expected Democratic losses in November's congressional elections.While saying he thought his party would retain its majority in both the House and Senate in the November 2 voting, Axelrod told the CBS program "Face The Nation" that that he hoped Republican gains would bring more cooperation.He accused Republicans of deliberate obstruction as a political strategy since President Barack Obama took office last year with majorities in both the House and Senate."The posture of the Republican Party from the moment we got here has been basically to deprive the president of bipartisan support so they could accuse him of not being bipartisan," Axelrod said.Ax should go back and look at the 'cooperation' they gave President Bush.

AceRimmer Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 If the WH is already extending the olive branch to the GOP, their internals must be very bad for the RATS in the House, Senate, and Gubernatorial races. To add insult to injury, he's now begging the Republicans to reach across the aisle after two years of ignoring everything Boehner and McConnell offered. Memo Axelrod: "Elections have consequences"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
