So get ready to be kicked in the face, which progressives have clearly argued is why Rahm is the ideal pick, ushering in a new spirit of take-no-prisoners Democrats. He'll also effectively protect Obama from attacks from the right, since they'll be way too scared of him to mention Emanuel's tenure on the board of Freddie Mac.Stoller is also mad at MyDD, Daily Kos, and uber-Obamabot Josh Marshall (see links). Nothing to see here, they all say. Barack knows best.
Matt's right to be concerned, but not because of Rahm. Obama telegraphed this move months ago. It wasn't hard to see it coming.
Liberal Obamabots are like those frogs in a pan of cold water. Eventually they get boiled alive, and they won't even know it. (The comments to Stoller's post are hilarious.)
