Blaming Rahm Emanuel? Actually, Put Barack Obama in the Crosshairs

Here's the new ad buy from the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, "Rahm = Weak":

I don't recall interest groups targeting a chief of staff with attack ads before. But ABC News' David Chalian suggests that Emanuel may want to return to public office, so progressive groups are turning up the heat, indirectly in this case, since the ultimate target should be the president. He's the one who's causing grassroots disillusionment with the Democratic agenda -- that is, Obama and the simply lame Pelosi-Reid Congress.

you know it is funny about the example he uses. i am going through that same problem with an insurance company in San Diego. whether or not the guy realizes it or not he gave the solution(if you listened closely) to the problem that was far better than the so-called public option solution he was promoting.
