The Power of the Message and the Obama White House


Politico: Reports on how the Obama White House sells in message to the voters, it points out the Obama's Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel still thinks the New York Times matters in this day and age. Thus we have found the problem for the disaster that was August for Obama, in Mr Emanuel Obama has the wrong Chief of Staff, Mr Emanuel is a great political operator, he turned the Republican House back to the Democrats, that does not make him a good Chief of Staff. The very idea that the Liberal New York Times matters shows a slight miss reading of modern political communication. The Liberal NYT matters if you are an extreme Liberal, but the rest of the country hates the Liberal NYT. If you think that leaking to the Liberal NYT is worth your effort then you are in the wrong job. As suggested to the President in this blog at the start of his Administration he should have appointed James Baker, Chief of Staff to Ronald Reagan in the first term, Treasury Secretary in the second term, and Secretary of State to Bush 41. Also he helped get Bush 43 in to the White House in 2000. If health care fails the blame will be down to Mr Emanuel.
