Time for more empty threats by angry liberals against the Democrats

Senior officials at the White House and in Congress say liberals will rally to their side once healthcare reform and other major initiatives are passed. And some Democratic pollsters say their research shows Democratic voters are solidly behind Obama, even though he has slipped among Republican and independent voters.

A senior Democrat familiar with discussions at the White House said there will be plenty of time to energize liberals next year.

“This is not a time to worry about the base; we’ll have all of the election year to do that,” said the Democratic source. “We’ll have a long list of accomplishments to present for them to rally around.”…

“There’s a big difference between some complaining in the vacuum that is Washington, D.C., versus the base of Democrats nationally,” said Anzalone. “The notion that liberals are unhappy is a non-truth.”
