Plouffe and Jarrett sound like they're right in the innermost circle ..... but stuff I've read makes it sound like Moochelle is right there, too.
That said, I think Obozo's got a secret politburo under wraps (oh, sure, he'll call it a "kitchen cabinet" or "brain trust" if it comes out -- use some old American chestnut to make it sound better), but I think some number of his "czars" plus the three mentioned already are the real Government.
His Obamacare bill looked like it appeared out of thin air -- but that stuff had to have been gestated as policy for years on the 'Rat side. What we got from both the White House and the Congress was a dumbshow, a fake legislative process for appearances only.
The real bill was written back in 2007 and 2008, cooked like a Julia Child rump roast for two years, and ready to go when Obozo was inaugurated.
We will never know who wrote that f****** bill!
But no doubt about it, it was a creature of the Prog Wing (Stalinist wing) of the 'Rat Conspiracy.
If the books are EVER written; am sure there would be surprises. Big 'IF"; however. .
