A new week brings another round of stupidity from Fournier regarding
Democrats who privately gripe about Obama's lack of engagement with Congress, his unwillingness to build meaningful relationships, his allegiance to polls and focus groups, and his cautious nature that, in their minds, holds him back from greatness. "He can't handle Putin. He can't handle Republicans," said a veteran Democratic consultant and part-time adviser to both of Obama's presidential campaigns. Speaking on condition of anonymity, the Democrat told me, "He just is not a natural leader."
National Journal should hire some Web geek to construct a Ron Fournier Op-Ed Generator like someone else did for Tom Friedman. The quality of the content wouldn't suffer one iota, and they'd save a lot of money in the long run. More to the point, sometimes "leadership" involves showing some self-restraint while others are panicking. Why is this so difficult for so many people in the DC policy elite to figure out?
