Joe Trippi working for Tony Blair

So that's what he's been up to, running Blair's campaign! Is this a surprise to anyone else?

1. These folks are "Guns for Hire." Blair is Labor = DLC Dem.

It's a Job....no need to question. He has folks he has to feed.

Until we understand this...we won't get the "game," and we will not understand how to "play the game." :shrug:

4. He didn't run Blair's campaign...

He was only an advisor.

5. I wasn't judging him

I like Joe . . . and I like Tony Blair for that matter. But I'd love to know what Bush promised him to go along with this incredibe farce in the Middle East.

8. Pummelled? Hardly.

He will be the first Labour Prime Minister to serve a third term. Just because his party didn't win by the landslide that they did last time is far from a pummelling. Both major American parties would love to have majority that size in Congress.
