Coming from a man who usually possesses the objectivity of a lovesick puppy when it comes to Obama, Chris Matthews, host of MSNBC’s Hardball sounded out of character when he barked at White House Press Secretary, Robert Gibbs, accusing the president of hanging out with the rich cats, and smelling like a Clinton.
Matthews: “You’re a communications expert, I know it’s tough to have to defend the White House and speak the complete truth… It seems that this president has had to go to a lot of fund raisers lately. He’s played a lot of golf lately, he’s hung around with Geithner, and Summers, and the Paulson crowd. The whole New York rich guy scene; he’s beginning to look like a Clinton. He looks like a typical Democrat now. Hanging out, playing golf, going to rich people’s parties, bringing people in the White House to go bowling. I mean this whole thing is beginning to smell like the Clinton era. What happened to the change we believed in? I’m asking?”
Gibbs seemed slightly off guard when a disenchanted Matthews wanted to know why the president of change had become prince of Wall Street.
Matthews complains to Gibbs,
“People don’t like Goldman Sachs, they don’t like these bailouts…Why are Democrats being put in the position as being seen as the pro-Wall Street party?”
