Video: When did Obama fight his own party? posted at 11:12 am on September 7, 2008 by Ed Morrissey Send to a Friend | printer-friendly Chris Wallace puts David Axelrod on the hot seat this morning on Fox News to ask Barack Obama’s chief strategist to provide evidence of Obama’s post-partisanship. Axelrod sputters about a few co-sponsored bills that passed by unanimous consent, but fails to come up with any evidence at all.

Wallace Sets Axelrod Straight
Hyscience —
Something about Axelrod makes me feel like I need to go take a bath with lots of strong soap. I think it has something to do with slime.
