Doing the Obama Hustle

Obama is hustling voters
It’s becoming clearer day by day. The President and Democrat leaders have been doing the Hustle. Not only hustling voters from the get-go, but hustling all year to push their statist legislative agenda through Congress. And, most often, they’re attempting to do so in the still of the night.
Why? Because undemocratic Democrats understand better than they’re given credit that a solid majority of Americans occupy the center-right. Democrats, especially party liberals, well appreciate that last November’s election wasn’t a resounding mandate, but, rather, a small window through which to squeeze massive leftwing measures.
Wasn’t it the lighthearted Rahm Emanuel who said: "Never let a big crisis go to waste?" And, he might have added, if the crisis isn’t big enough, gin it up.
