This Universal Health care Bill calamity now has the left wing of the Democrat party turning on each other. Rep. Maxine Waters is now saying that Rahm Emanuel is to blame for the bill not passing already. This blame is tied to Emanuel's work as head of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee which pushed for more middle of the road or "blue dog" Democrats to run in traditionally conservative districts during the last couple of elections. This strategy worked wonders for getting the Democrats a large majority in the house and Senate but it is those same Democrats who are now blocking Obama Care from passing in the House and Senate. The only problem with Rep. Water's complaint is that if it weren't the strategy of running "blue dogs" the Democrats may not have a majority now. Oh yeah and she threw in a little Reverend Wright classic as well saying that Emanuel's "Chickens have come home to roost."
