At risk House members who took the more liberal votes on health care, on climate, on stimulus, on Wall Street are mad at Obama for failing to support them for taking the principled stands that Obama would not.

House Democrats are lashing out at the White House, venting long-suppressed anger over what they see as President Obama's lukewarm efforts to help them win reelection -- and accusing administration officials of undermining the party's chances of retaining the majority in November's midterm elections.

Pelosi is overshadowing Obama, proving Obama wrong on health care, climate, Wall Street reform by passing the legislation Obama says is "impossible" and he likely wants her gone along with the House Democratic majority.

The article notes that this is what many of the House members think also, that Obama hopes to hold on to the Senate and that a GOP House and right of center Democratic in name only Senate is more in line with Obama's own politics such his plan to cut Social Security to pay Reagan/Bush/GOP debt.

Obama's animosity to Pelosi upstaging him likely goes back to health care when, after Obama and Senate failure to pass health care reform with public option lead to GOP winning MA Senate seat and Obama planning to give up even his weak health care bill. Pelosi took Obama and Democratic by the scruffs of their necks, told them to man up and pass it.
