"The whole recall strategy was stupid. The AFL-CIO and the Dem leadership stifled an exciting popular movement and turned it into a campaign rally for a dull centrist. And now they look like worse losers than they did before. Heads should roll."
-------- Whether it was _stupid_ or not depends on what their goal was. It's at least arguable that their goal was precisely to "stifle an exciting popular movement." If that was the case they were hardly stupid. Remember Obama's 'promise' to the Bankers that he stood between them and the men with pitchforks. The Chicago Teachers are at present the "vanguard" of an embryonic u.s. left: one might say that they (and the coalition around them) are the actual meaning of Wisconsin now. We shall see.
