David Axelrod: Obama's Political Consultant For the Status Quo

The New York Times reports on Democratic political consultant David Axelrod:
Axelrod has worked through Obama’s life story again and again, scouring it for usable political material, and he believes that some basic themes come through: that he is “not wedded to any ideological frame or dogma,” that he is “an outsider rather than someone who’s spent years in the dens of Georgetown,” that he is an “agent for change” and has the optimism and dynamism of a fresh, young face.
When you are from Chicago and your are a Democrat: you aren't for change.Barack Obama and David Axelrod are for 70 more years of Democratic rule in Chicago.
