Al Franken is on stage again. He's playing Stalin to David Axelrod's Trotsky.

“Sen. Al Franken ripped into White House senior adviser David Axelrod
this week during a tense, closed-door session with Senate Democrats.
Five sources who were in the room tell POLITICO that Franken criticized
Axelrod for the administration’s failure to provide clarity or
direction on health care and the other big bills it wants Congress to
enact.[Full] |

Okay,
that was a slightly flawed analogy. Stalin purged Trotsky for
being less than a balls-out Commie (when the word meant something).
Axelrod is every bit the
Progressive
that Franken is, but as political adviser to Obama it's his job to
recognize the political landscape - one currently having Obama
Democrats as popular as Blue Ointment is with pubic lice. Franken of course is merely deranged.
