Ruh-roh: Obama WH clearing space under the bus for Chief of Staff Daley. “Is there a level of unhappiness with Bill around the White House? Yeah,” said a person close to Obama who spoke on condition of anonymity, like almost all other insiders interviewed for this story. Yup, it’s as predictable as a federally-subsidized green energy company going bankrupt: Bush, Arabs, earthquakes, tsunamis, The Tea Party and now Bill Daley. Obama would be a success if it weren’t for… well, almost everybody.

I thought there was something hinky with the swap out - Chicago top dog for former Chicago dog who was the 0's slickest dog that followed him to DC. There was likely a deal to get Daley and Emmanuel to switch seats as some insidious power exchange in order to get all those deceased people to vote for Zippy in 2008. Daley, being old Chicago royalty is likely unhappy with being traded out for nothing other than DC cronyism. I mean, Daley is not likely to get his old job back anytime after this one ends in January 2013.
When he doesn't let Reid stick his nose up there for a wiff then he's considered incompetent. He also told that witch Pelosi she needed to get a new broom to fly on. I guess he don't like BROWN NOSER'S sniffing what he does in the WH and that pisses the Dems off when they have no gossip at their 2PM cocktail parties. He probably realizes "O" is down the tubes this next election so he's just going to lay back and watch it all go down the toilet.

Oh, a Daley. BFD.
Let me know when they start talking about booting Jarrett. But don't hold your breath.
Jarrett is probably behind this. From what I read, the two are at odds with Daley being the sore thumb in a White House whose other denizens are to the left of Kim Jong Il.
