Is it time for Bill Daley to step down? Could be..

Many times in the past weeks there has been the question of why the WH has not addressed and responded to the slams that the President and the administration have taken. This may be one of the best reasons I've seen. Great article

1. Good article, and yet it still comes back to the President
We used to blame Emanuel and now we're blaming Daley. I agree that both these men have proven to be disastrous COS's but both were selected by Obama.

The President is a very smart guy. He is very analytical and he appears to be perceptive. So why does he seem unable to perceive that he is losing the PR wars without even seeming to make an effort to fight them?

Obama has been poorly served by his cabinet and staff. There are better and more capable people out there. True, the Chamber of Commerce might not approve of them but I guarantee the American people would appreciate their efforts. Some of them might even be willing to kick a little republican ass.

5. The truth is that Obama has been poorly served by his lack of spine.
Not by who he appoints.

It all flows from the top.

2. I honestly liked Rahm. But yeah, Bill Daley seems like the opposite type of person we would like for
job.

3. What took 'em so long! The only person who's resignation they haven't called for his Biden's.
But even DUers constantly speculate about having Hiliary replace him. As if.

4. Republicans don't hate Daley like they hated Rahm, that says a lot.
The reason they hate Nancy Pelosi -- she's effective.
