Obama to claim victory at site DRIPPING with symbolism — according to a NY Times Story
The Xcel Energy Center may be dripping in symbolism as the site of the Republican Convention, but it is also dripping in irony, because the name is so confusingly similar to Excelon Energy, the energy company for whose benefit Obama caved on legislation he had introduced to protect the public with mandatory notification of any radiation leaks, then subsequently accepted $100s of thousands in campaign contributions.
Finally, just revealed this last week, Obama campaign manager David Axelrod was hired as a clandestine lobbyist to coordinate Excelon’s fake citizens’ organization calling for reduced restrictions.
It’s a bold move in its brazeness, almost tempting voters to make the connection to one of the biggest hypocrisies of the Obama campaign. Axelrod is thumbing his nose and gatting his final laugh, knowing that the public won’t make the connection.
It would be as if John McCain claimed his nomination under a banner proclaiming, “Mission Accomplished.”
