Pressure Builds for White House Shake Up
Some high-level Democrats are calling for President Obama “to remake his inner circle or even fire top advisers in response to what many party strategists expect to be a decisive defeat on Tuesday,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“Tensions have come to the surface after meetings over the past few weeks in which Obama senior adviser David Axelrod discussed communications strategy with senior Democratic strategists and party officials. Some Democrats were so unhappy with the White House meetings, they started their own.”
“The strategy sessions aired a range of disagreements over how to help Democrats forestall an electoral drubbing at the polls — a defeat party strategists believe could have been minimized with a different White House playbook.”
