Late Friday Afternoon Holiday Weekend White House Bad News Dump

Friends, it's another bad news dump at the White House. It's a tried and true technique fondly used by every administration. This time it's the Sestak "they offered me a job to drop out of the campaign" story. OTR really doesn't know if this one has legs, but there's plenty of smoke in the air, especially after Obama's luncheon with Clinton yesterday. I wonder what they talked about? Of course, you have heard today's early news that Clinton made the offer to Sestak.

UPDATE: The word "cover up" is getting louder. Maybe Karl Rove had this nailed earlier in the day.

Tough week at the White House, I'd say. Between Setstak, the stock market sell off, the Deepwater Horizon oil spill and the 1200 unarmed National Guard troops on the U.S. - Mexico border for "drug interdiction," a long weekend seems more than overdue. Unfortunately, for the Hope and Change believers, these stories will not go away. This administration reminds me of standing in a room full of ping pong balls mounted on mouse traps about three seconds after someone tossed the first ball. In other words, there's a lot more chaos on the way.
