Pres. Obama’s 2nd line of defense for future successes (Update)

In my opinion, the President’s first line of defense for future successes are persons identifying, tagging and supporting Democratic candidates to run in primaries and generals. Those identifiers are the ones bringing the candidates onto the political stage and for many reasons, Bloggers and volunteers can not do that.

Now that there are proven *successes in Pres. Obama’s presidency, I suspect with a U.S. Supreme Court law permitting corporations to share the same political contributions as humans and with the demise of the Republican Party, many a would-be traitor will be seeking to infiltrate the Democratic Party.

The Democratic Party is a piece of cake to get into: A candidate goes around to Baptist churches yelling “Hallelujah!” at appropriate times during the services and he’s in. Simple as that!

I would like to think those days are gone. I would like to think persons in positions of tagging Democratic candidates would now check out the would-be candidate’s writings, prior political affiliations, monitor their bank accounts after they have been tagged and, if possible, conduct random checks on their underwear for inconsistent DNA droplets and stains. (As an aside, I understand Rahm Emanuel was somehow able to push through the current crop of Blue Dogs.)

It is only after this thorough vetting stage can volunteers and Bloggers go to work doing the job of getting the candidate into office. We can only work with whom the vetters have given us. Looking forward to the work to be done….

*Barack Obama gains steam, plows ahead
By CAROL E. LEE
Excerpt:
Obama’s new mojo comes after being tethered to the White House for months getting in the weeds of the health care debate. Relieved of working the phones and huddling with lawmakers, it appears he’ll keep brisk pace on a number of fronts.

And

He will talk about health care in Maine this week. He’ll raise money for Democrats in Boston on Thursday, and the White House already has him teed up to do an event in North Carolina Friday, hours after the Labor Department releases the latest unemployment figures. Obama will also sign fixes to the health care bill and student loan reforms into law at a ceremony Tuesday before he and the first lady host French President Nicolas Sarkozy and his wife at the White House. 

And

“They made some mistakes,” Begala said. “So I think that they come into the rest of 2010 with eyes wide open, and I don’t think they’re going to waste months and months again trying to get one or two or six Republicans to join them.”

We Can, And We Did
by Paradox13
Excerpt:
In the face of united and vitriolic opposition from the Republicans, as well as outright lies and slander, our Democratic Congress and President Obama have delivered on progress for the American people. It's cumbersome progress, and the change we want is not arriving as quickly as we might have wished, but turning the ship of state is not a rapid maneuver. Our President promised change we could believe in, not change that would happen quickly, or even change that would be revolutionary.

And
At this point, it is worthwhile to review the changes that have happened since January 2009, and reflect. These changes are, after all, what we as Democrats believe in.
