Former Top Obama Advisor David Axelrod Shreds Biden, Says He's 'Not in Command'
[RS] The man who masterminded both successful presidential campaigns for former President Obama, strategist David Axelrod, has harsh words for the current Commander-in-Chief saying, "There is this sense that things are kind of out of control and he’s not in command." Appearing on CNN’s "The Lead with Jake Tapper" Thursday, he added, "so, you know, this is a very, very fraught environment for him right now."

The first question that pops into my mind is, does this have Obama’s blessing? It’s hard to imagine that Axelrod, now a CNN commentator, would criticize the Democratic Party’s standard-bearer without running it first by his former boss. My second question is, how long does this guy want to work at CNN? Because if he keeps spouting off like this, he’s bound to upset some folks at the left-leaning network who have been covering for Biden since day one of his presidency. Paging Brian Stelter and Oliver Darcy...

#3 Not sure Big Mike willing to work that hard, even as pampered as she would be, because she might have to actually face questions and all that messy political stuff before the coronation. Plus, the Magic Kenyan could simply NOT stay out of the limelight, trying to be always the center of the room. Still, the endless fawning prestige and adoration by the glitterati of being the most powerful black woman in world history might draw even her.

#4 It's Big Mike. Bank on it. Biden is just window dressing on the battlefield prep.
