This should be entertaining. Miserable failure Jimmy Carter is going to meet with his latter day political doppelganger.
Politico.com has the story of the blind leading the bland:
Jimmy Carter wants to see President Barack Obama drop his efforts at bipartisanship during the next two years, and he thinks the president will heed his call.
“In the next two years, President Obama will be much more independent in fighting hard to prevail and not trying to reach out,” the former president said in an interview with CBS News on “Washington Unplugged.” “I think he’ll be a much more tough proponent of what he stands for in the future, giving up on Republicans’ support and taking his case to the American public.”
Meanwhile, Carter will meet with Obama on Tuesday, White House press secretary Robert Gibbs confirmed.
Carter had planned to meet with the White House’s national security adviser, Tom Donilon. Obama then asked Carter if he would stop by for a meeting, Gibbs told reporters on Tuesday.
What advice could Carter possibly have? How to handle the Iranian threat? How to improve the economy? How to control a domineering wife?
Oh, to be a fly on the wall of the West Wing.
