what to say to the masses to sound populist, without hurting the feelings of the rich. One piece of advice I bet they gave: "Don't talk about wealth inequality as Bernie does, talk about income inequality. The masses probably won't notice or think about the difference, but talking about income inequality won't scare the wealthy as much as wealth inequality."
Sperling was also a Clintonite hired by Obama--and by "self-avowed socialist" Lawrence O'Donnell btw. (If O'Donnell, who has been very dismissive of Sanders, is a socialist, I'll eat every tape of the West Wing.)
Anyway.....Sperling came up with the sequester, then lied about that repeatedly, until Woodward outed him with his (Sperling's) aemails. After being outed, Sperling's retort was to the effect that Congress had not adopted the sequester exactly as he had proposed it: The wicked Republicans had made changes. So......he never proposed the sequester.
By that standard, Obama never proposed Obamacare.
