Progressives launch ad campaign against Rahm

The Progressive Change Campaign Committee (PCCC) is launching an ad campaign targeting Rahm Emanuel in his home town.

The ad, airing in Chicago, slams Rahm for "undermining" the pubilc option.

"A lot of us back home hope that Rahm Emanuel is fighting for people like us as White House Chief of Staff," says the man appearing in the ad, after describing his own battle with insurance companies.

"But if he sides with the insurance companies and undermines the public option, well, he won't have many fans in Chicago."

3. Nothing like knifing the democratic administration.
All in the name of progressives, of course.

Sometimes I wonder what people are thinking.

5. Some of us are thinking "Maybe we can get what was promised"
instead of once again being screwed by the Republican-Lite
side of "our" party.

6. I have to laugh at language like that.
What were you promised? Or what did you think you were promised? That seems to be the biggest elephant in the room, those misconceptions of promises. Otherwise it looks like sour grapes and it's foolish for democrats to run down the people Politico puts up as your enemy.

8. Laugh all you like now 'cause you'll be crying come November
when the Democrats in the House and Senate have their hats handed to them.
