Moe Lane says “this should be fun.” Fun, maybe. Interesting, definitely.
The WashingtonPost: David Plouffe, the man who managed President Barack Obama‘s campaign, will be taking on an expanded role as an outside adviser to the White House, according to sources familiar with the plan, a move that comes just days after a stunning defeat for Democrats in a Massachusetts Senate special election.Allies of the White House cast the Plouffe move as less about the Massachusetts election and more about the fact that the election year is heating up and Plouffe has more free time following the publication of his campaign memoir late last year. Still, the timing is sure to stoke speculation that the White House is seeking to shore up its political operation.
After managing Obama’s successful primary and general election races, Plouffe chose not to go into the White House — as so many of his campaign colleagues did — but rather return to the private sector and focus on writing his memoir of the campaign called “The Audacity to Win”. The book was released on November 3, 2009.
Plouffe did stay involved with Organizing for America, the operation formed in the wake of Obama’s victory to maintain the massive grassroots email and donor base built during the campaign. While OFA officials tout it as a success story there is increasing skepticism within the party about whether it has truly fulfilled its mission of bringing a grassroots army to bear on the President’s top priorities. ….
I say this should be interesting, because Plouffe was the man behind the Obama campaign. The campaign that vilified the president at the time. The campaign that stoked voter anger and led the public to believe that only The One could heal the nation and solve its problems. Now that voter anger is directed at The One, and there’s no boogieman to vilify, Plouffe’s going to have his work cut out for him.
