| It ("The Distancing") Begins: Sestak puts blame on Democratic leaders for slipping support |
| 2010-01-09 |
| Rep. Joe Sestak blames Democratic leaders for the plunge in public support for overhauling the health care system, saying Wednesday they failed to defend proposals that helped carry the party to victories in 2008. "They said it would be transparent. Why isn't it?" said Sestak, a Delaware County Democrat, in a meeting with Tribune-Review editors and reporters. "At times, I find the caucus is a real disappointment. We aren't transparent, not just to the public but at times to the members." [GAG] Bambi, Harry and Nancy weren't transparent on purpose: they knew what a stinker this was with the public. |

| #5 DepotGuy, Democrat - snake a distinction without a difference, although you really shouldn't slander snakes like that; at least they mostly eat mice and other vermin. |

| #4 "I need to let people know there's a principled alternative." Yeah right. Sestak has been nothing more then a walkin-talkin Democrat bullet-point since he was elected. Now he sees Arlen getting the nod from the honchos and his coffers stagnate. Looks like someone advised him to re-brand as a maverick. This guyÂ’s a snake. |

| #3 I think Sestak is just a tad bitter. He banked much on his '08 congressional election campaign contributions, always planning to run for Pa (D) Senate seat. Then 'Benedict Arnold' Specter (the 60th (D) in the Senate) comes on over to the other side. Joe's in campaign mode for the Pa primaries on May 18. |

| #2 These two articles belong together The Fall 2010 elections can not come fast enough for this country, as this "culture of corruption" by the Democratic Party must be stopped in its tracks. |

| #1 And he is a uber-liberal member of the donks. When the left side of the cabal (I consider Cafferty a charter member) start biting your ankles, you have bigger problems than if the Tea Party comes to town. |
