WHITE HOUSE INSIDER: How Mitt Romney Mentally Castrated The Obama Campaign – (Part I)
The timing of this interview comes just days after a soon to be published book, Leading from Behind, authored by Richard Miniter details how it is Valerie Jarrett and not President Barack Obama who makes the final decision in so many of the most critical calls from within the White House – even those involving the United States military. This knowledge is nothing new to readers of this blog, for that very information first originated from our own longtime D.C. political operative some two years ago. We talk to that figure again now, in person – White House Insider.
PART ONE:
UM: Let’s cut right to it then – the Romney campaign. How are they doing against the Obama team?
WHI: Doin’ fine. Fine. Money coming in…they ain’t spending it much just yet. Which is smart. July is not the month to do that. Get it goin’ in August. Kick ass at that convention of theirs. Then pour it on right up to the finish.
UM: And the Obama campaign? How would you compare them to the Romney camp at this point?
WHI: They are running against everything and running for nothin’. That is tough to pull off for an extended period. The American people…once they start really focusing…they don’t want to hear negative-negative-negative all the time and that’s all we are getting’ from Obama these days. They are a long way off from the Hope and Change days.
UM: Specifically on that – the Obama team…you think they can still win this though? That Obama can be re-elected?
WHI: Oh hell yeah – absolutely. They are dragging his sorry ass all over the country, putting the words in his mouth…thinking the First Lady…that image they have been trying to create around her…the racism stuff…that campaign isn’t even close to be started on that yet…they are worried about money a bit…but they got about 90% of the media in their pockets…they got tens of millions still coming in…and they got the stupidity of a whole lot of voters who ain’t been paying attention to what this group has been doing to the country.
UM: What do the internal polls say? You look confident – that doesn’t happen when you are worried. So I assume you have information that is favorable to the Romney team?
WHI: (BIG SMILE) Guess I gotta work a bit on my…uh… poker face! Yes-yes-yes…that polling data the public rarely ever gets to see. The lifeblood of a campaign. The god-amn internals!
UM: Well?
WHI: Those Romney boys…they got a good pile of money and I said they ain’t been spending much just yet. But they have been doin’ their homework on gathering up a sh-tload of polling data – especially in those swing states.
…And it’s looking good for them. I’ll tell you that. Not a slam dunk no worried scenario – but they got a real chance here to win this thing. Their campaign…it’s been rock solid so far. Forget the bullsh-t media spin trying to drive home every little supposed mistake they’re makin’ – so far the Romney team is winning this thing. But the real race hasn’t quite started yet so they gotta be ready for the real show. That’s coming up next month. That’s when the real punches start. And Romney better be ready to take a punch, cause they are gonna come at him hard.
‘Course, they did something that got my attention – earned my respect. These boys can crack a lip open themselves. All suit and ties on the outside, but tough bastards behind the scenes. Reminds me a lot of the Reagan team. Smile to your face while they are kicking the sh-t out of you.
UM: Tell me what that was – what did the Romney team do to earn your respect?
WHI: It ain’t just this one thing – like I said. They are running a solid campaign. But I do like a team that can twist the knife a bit and do it with some style – and that’s what they did recently.
UM: So what was it?
WHI: All that internal polling – the swing states. What I was just telling you about…there was one in particular that came out very strong for Romney. Huge numbers. Had to have shocked the Romney team a bit – maybe an outlier. A glitch. We are talking in the neighborhood of a ten point walk over Obama. Ten points in a so-called swing state? Independents were like 60-40 favoring Romney. Women came out just ahead for Romney. Hispanics split almost 50-50. And even the Blacks polled were just under 80 for Obama – which we have not seen in any poll since 2007. Ever.
So this kind of data comes into the campaign, right? They give it a look-over…decide it has to be….somethin’ off. A mistake in the poll. Those numbers are just too favorable to Romney. He’s doing well but these internals are saying he is OWNING Obama in this state – a state that went for Obama back in ’08. Now normally you take that kind of poll with a big grain a salt…and you…you move on. Come back to it later. Got sh-t to do, right?
Not these Romney boys. They order up a new poll. Like…it’s within 48 hours. Do it again they say. Do it right. Increase the group. Poll more voters. Cross check the data and cross check it again. Be god-amn thorough this time.
Now that costs money – but that’s the kind of money…that’s how they are doin’ their spending. Smart. Focused. No waste. They want facts. They want real results….like a business…like a well run business. That has been the Romney campaign so far. When mistakes are made they quickly react…they refocus…they move on. Just like a business.
UM: The second poll – so they ran another poll? From a larger sample group?
WHI: Right – exactly. Spent a bit more money – they want to know EXACTLY where they are in this state. If they take this state early on Election Night – that could be it for Obama. One and done. It’s a swing state you see…but Romney ain’t supposed to win it. So yeah – they order up a second poll. Get the group to do it fast – that takes more money. But they spend it – willing to spend it to be certain of getting real information. That’s how it’s done – I respect that. Love a team that works like that. Let me know where we are at – where we really sit with these people…then let me take it from there. Get the f-ck outta my way and let me take it from there.
UM: And what did that second poll show?
WHI: (Both hands slap down onto their knees and WHI leans well forward in their seat. Their eyes widened and that BIG smile broke out across their face again)
…Pure gold man. That second poll…sh-t…it came out even better for Romney. It bumped him another two points overall…picked up among women…more Independents…even a percentage among Democrats as a whole. And that poll was done right – it was the real deal. We ain’t talking some CNN/ABC/CBS/NBC/Gallup bullsh-t here. It was boots on the ground, diggin’ in the dirt…the real deal data that is the lifeblood of a campaign. And it came back aces for Mitt Romney. In a state he ain’t supposed to be winning!
Now maybe the gravity of this story…what I’m telling you here…maybe it ain’t hittin’ you quite as hard as somebody like me. For me…for a campaign…you get numbers come back like this in a state that a few months back you are giving yourself maybe a far less than 50/50 shot of winnin’…that kind of poll – DONE TWICE remember – TWICE – that kind of poll…it’s a holy sh-t moment. In a good way. The Romney boys had to have been goin’ into a full on happy dance seeing those numbers. And when they shared them with the candidate himself…even Mitt Romney had to have cracked a real smile.
UM: But what did they do that earned your respect – or was it just ordering up the second poll?
WHI: Oh hell no…the second poll was just…that’s just money well spent. What they did next…and it’s my understanding it was approved by the candidate himself…what they did from there is what took this polling data and turned it into a weapon against the Obama team. They…I’ll say it like I say it…not their words but mine. The Romney boys…they took that poll – both polls…they purposely leaked it over to the Obama team. They slapped the sh-t outta them with it. HARD.
UM: I don’t understand – what do you mean by leaked the poll to Obama?
WHI: Just like I said it…normally, you keep a lid on these internals. That’s YOUR polling data…you don’t share it. You keep it…maybe leak it here and there to somebody friendly to you in the media…but for the most part, the internals stay hidden from view, right? And you sure as f-ck don’t share it with the opposition. You let that happen…you don’t protect that data…that gets your ass fired. Those polls cost money – don’t waste that money letting the other side know that information for free.
…But this time…this time the Romney team…they purposely leaked the internals. Both of them. And the beauty of it is…the Obama guy…the one who first came across it…that poor bastard thought he had pulled it off himself. Thought he had made a deal…got the goods. Right? You follow what I’m sayin’?
UM: I do – keep it going.
WHI: So…so this Obama kid…he’s junior level but he thinks he really got something here. A brand new poll…two of them back to back… paid for by the Romney team – and he’s got them for nothing. That kid had to have been really thinkin’ highly of himself.
Then he reads the data. Then he sh-ts himself. Then he passes it on to the higher ups. They sh-t themselves. Then it goes to the big boys themselves…and Obama. And Jarrett. This poll has got them on full tilt. We’re talking major freak out session here. But you see…they can’t pass it off as just an anomaly, right? They got BOTH polls…all the cross tabs…they got everything. And the data is solid. ROCK F-CKING SOLID.
It’s got the main office in Chicago in a fit. It’s got phone calls back to DC…back to Chicago…on the campaign trail…Plouffe is taking incoming big time…Jarrett is like a damn T-Rex for a full day on this. The woman is pissed off. Axelrod hits the road for 48 solid – unavailable. He’s avoiding Jarrett. Jarrett calls in that kid…the poor kid who thought he had made a score against the Romney team…she wants to know EXACTLY how he came to obtain those materials, right? She starts to smell the set up.
Jarrett’s Influence Over Obama: She’s The ‘De Facto President’
Leading from Behind: The Reluctant President and the Advisors Who Decide for Him
Now by the time it’s explained to their candidate – Obama… Jarrett doesn’t hold back. She lays into HIM. She rattles the president. If they lose that state…and the numbers don’t look good for them…if they lose that state then winning the election becomes extremely tough for them.
UM: And what was Obama’s reaction to this data?
WHI: Hold up…I’m getting’ there. Now Jarrett…she ain’t…she don’t understand a campaign. That ain’t her thing. But she sure as hell understands a set up. She knows…by then she is realizing the Romney team has just initiated a major mind-f-ck onto the Obama campaign. And THAT is what has got her so pissed. The woman does not like to be messed with – by ANYONE.
So she is laying into Obama…basically that he better bring his A game to this…that it’s all bets are off now and they got a real race on their hands. She’s screaming at him. At everyone. It’s a one on one conversation…but everyone on board can hear it. Even over the engines. At least in the back. Maybe not up front with the press corp…but everyone in the back can hear it. She is blasting him – the campaign…she insults the voters…she goes on and on about the economy. How they should have done something about the economy by now. And then she rips into the Chamber of Commerce. For a good ten minutes. How they have always been out to get them. How they are run by one of “THEM”.
UM: Them?
WHI: She said they…the Chamber…it was “just like Chicago”. The f-cking Irish. Just like Chicago. There’s a back story to all that…the Daley’s…her and them go way back. And it didn’t end well….you know all of that. When Bill Daley left…that war they had between them.
…Look, the woman….Jarrett…she’s an outright racist. She really is. And it’s a racism that is found all through the Obama administration. That’s nothing new there…anyone who takes the time to look and add it all up…the DOJ…Holder…that’s all there. But I want to just focus on those internals and how they messed with the entire Obama campaign. How they are STILL messing with that campaign.
UM: Go ahead then – this is fascinating stuff.
WHI: It gets so much better…we are getting to the point where I really gotta tip my hat to Romney on this. Like I said…reminds me a lot of the Reagan team. Somethin’ they would have done.
…So we got Jarrett going crazy. We got Obama digesting what she is screaming at him. We got campaign staff overhearing all that. We got Plouffe scrambling to initiate his own internal in that state to corroborate the numbers that they THINK they stole from Romney. We got Axelrod playing dumb…the whole operation is getting’ its ass kicked by that polling data from that one swing state.
But all of this gets better…the real payoff is coming. You see, this all goes down early July…just after the holiday, right? That’s the timeline of all of this. Hits the fan over the course of about a week…week and a half.
And then what?
UM: You’re asking me?
WHI: Yeah – and then what? What happens to the Obama campaign right after? Think about it…a couple weeks after the 4th of July holiday…what does Obama say?
UM: …Bloody hell.
WHI: (BIG SMILE) Now you’re seein’ it. Romney got inside his head – Obama is rattled. The entire campaign is rattled. And Obama goes out and says what? You go ahead and tell me for a change. What does Obama say not two weeks after the Romney team slips that internal polling data over to them?
UM: “You didn’t build that.”
WHI: And that’s how you play smashmouth politics son. A mental castration of a sitting president. And the Romney team just did it as good as I’ve EVER seen it done right there. And the decision to make sure that polling data made its way back to Obama…that had to come from Mitt Romney himself. And when he did that…he balled up his fist and smacked Obama right up in his face. Right into that fake ass toothy fool grin of his. He let him know this ain’t gonna be 2008. This is gonna be a war. Barack Obama…Valerie Jarrett…Plouffe…Axelrod…they all got their asses kicked on this one.
Romney done good…

WHITE HOUSE INSIDER: “We Got One Last Chance Here To Make It Right” – (Part II)
The timing of this interview comes just days after a soon to be published book authored by Richard Miniter details how it is Valerie Jarrett and not President Barack Obama who makes the final decision in so many of the most critical calls from within the White House – even those involving the United States military. This knowledge is nothing new to readers of this blog, for that very information first originated from our own longtime D.C. political operative some two years ago.

PART TWO:
WHI: (BIG SMILE) Now you’re seein’ it. Romney got inside his head – Obama is rattled. The entire campaign is rattled. And Obama goes out and says what? You go ahead and tell me for a change. What does Obama say not two weeks after the Romney team slips that internal polling data over to them?
UM: “You didn’t build that.”
WHI: And that’s how you play smashmouth politics son. A mental castration of a sitting president. And the Romney team just did it as good as I’ve EVER seen it done right there. And the decision to make sure that polling data made its way back to Obama…that had to come from Mitt Romney himself. And when he did that…he balled up his fist and smacked Obama right up in his face. Right into that fake ass toothy fool grin of his. He let him know this ain’t gonna be 2008. This is gonna be a war. Barack Obama…Valerie Jarrett…Plouffe…Axelrod…they all got their asses kicked on this one.
Romney done good…
UM: Are you saying Obama was so rattled he didn’t mean what he said? The comments about “you didn’t build that”?
WHI: Oh hell no. No-no-no. He meant it. Every bit of it. (Pause) What I mean there is that he slipped up…the subject was burnin’ that little pea brain of his…so he slipped up. He allowed what he really feels to come right out into the open. He’s done that before…here and there. But this was…this time it was really out in the open – he was shouting it. The deal is…with Obama…like I’ve said – guy hates America. Really does. Thinks it needs…thinks there needs to be a reset button. Thinks the free market is evil. Thinks that only liberal government, Big Government, socialized government…whatever you wanna call it – he thinks that is the only real solution to how to reshape the country into his own image.
UM: And you believe that perspective is different from the traditional Democratic Party in America – correct?
WHI: You’re Godd-amn right it is – I’ll say it to you again and again – Obama ain’t no Democrat. Never was. Never has been. He controls the party…people who think like him…people who placed him in power…they control the party…but they represent something far different than what the party was 20 odd years ago.
UM: That change you suggest…it started during the Clinton years.
WHI: You askin’ me or you tellin’ me?
UM: That’s my opinion – it started during the Clinton years and accelerated during the Bush years. At least on a national level…a concentrated level. The Old Man says it started decades earlier – but the progressive thing…at least in my own lifetime…the Clinton years seem to be where it really took root.
WHI: Bill Clinton ain’t Barack Obama – don’t make that comparison with me son.
UM: He has people from his administration who are now working – or were working, inside the Obama administration.
WHI: Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.
UM: Does that explain Eric Holder?
WHI: What?
UM: Holder – he came from the Clinton administration.
WHI: You know how I feel about Eric f-cking Holder.
UM: Maybe Holder…Clinton…maybe they are all cut from the same cloth? And Eric Holder is still there…still running interference for Obama.
WHI: Yeah – he’s still there. For now. Let’s see if that stays the same this fall. Ok? We got the vote, right? Not many woulda thought that possible six months ago. Certainly not a year ago. I’ve done all I can on that – and then some. And then some. I got…I done every bit of what I could possibly do there – you know that. You know what – you seen the results of that work. Me and a few others…we got our asses hanging way out there on this.
UM: But where does that leave it? What now?
WHI: What now is this – either the Republicans succeed in getting the special counsel…prosecutor…whatever the hell they callin’ it these days…or they don’t. The vote…God bless them there…that was not an easy call. People watching from the outside…they might think it’s an easy thing…but the media…they can turn that into a weapon against them if it ain’t handled right. Somethin’ like that…you gotta role it out real careful…real deliberate like. We ain’t finished with Holder – not by a long shot. There’s some more about to break on him…got a few loose ends…a few feet still draggin’ – but that’s about to change.
UM: How many people do you think Eric Holder has killed during his time at Justice with the Obama administration? How long are people willing to wait it out – to “role it out real careful” as you put it?
WHI: As long as it takes to get it done right son. You don’t know how…how difficult this kinda thing can be. This administration…these people around Obama – they got no fear on this stuff. Cold blooded. During the Clinton years…hell…things were done. Yeah…things that leave me wondering…we all got blood on our hands. Some more than others. How’d I put that to you before – you don’t ever wanna do the things I’ve done?
But these Obama people…they are different. A whole other level. Never seen anything like it. There’s stuff I won’t ever tell you. Never. You don’t want that kinda knowledge son. You throw out a question like how many people been killed under Eric Holder? Sh-t…you don’t even know what you’r askin’. You got no f-cking idea how far these people will go to keep pushin’ this agenda of theirs. Everything I told you was coming – now it’s here. The dismantling of the American system. The drones, the race riots, the promises to other countries…the open borders, the destruction of our domestic energy productions, the Obama government at war with the Catholic Church…the massive inflation that is just perched above us waiting to fall down on all our heads…so much sh-t they got ready to fire at us. That second term…that’s their moment. Obamacare, the deficit…cities going under…military cutbacks…I can’t keep track of it all it’s going on so damn fast now. This election coming up – people better know…they ain’t messing around now. This is the real f-cking deal right here. Right now.
Let me tell you somethin’ the Old Man told me…it was months back. Before all that sh-t that nearly put him in the ground. The stress of all this ain’t good for him…taking its toll. Can’t be good – he won’t share that with you…not all of it any ways.
So I’m asking him for help on about a thousand different fires I’m trying to put out – got Obama people everywhere. And I mean everywhere – and the Old Man…he’s brushing that all aside. “Just politics” he says. He don’t give a sh-t about that stuff. We are little people, right? And he don’t mean to demean us when he says that – that’s just his world. That’s his way – and he’s right. He’s godd—mn right. We are just cockroaches – it’s a sick business what we do. But it’s also a necessary one and that’s where I come in so f-ck it. It’s who I am. But the Old Man…he’s telling me…the words he used…the phrase was…”the entire system is terminal and I can’t save the patient.” Now he’s talking about the global economy here – that the entire system has been compromised to the point of collapse and he…and people like him who want to save it…they can’t do it alone. They might be able to…between them…maybe they got access to a couple trillion to move around here and there to try and stabilize things.
UM: A couple trillion? That much!
WHI: No – not personally. Hell no…he ain’t worth near that personally. But he’s got – and there’s others…they got access to that amount. In that neighborhood…he told me that some time ago. But that would be an all or nothin’ scenario for them…and…now I don’t understand how all that sh-t works…markets…he talks about capitalization…last summer he went on for about an hour about how out of whack the capitalization of something and somethin’ was…I don’t know. Just that it’s real bad. And I mean real bad and these Obama people – they are in on it big time. It ain’t that they are just ignorant or incompetent – it’s purposeful what they are doing.
And when they got rid of that IMF fella – the French guy…I never seen the Old Man so worried. He’s told the both of us…let us know how dangerous that woman at the IMF is…but he won’t say much about it – but it’s got him damn worried.
UM: I messed up that last interview – with the Old Man. My question to the Military Insider.
WHI: Bullsh-t – you didn’t mess up nothin’. You really think a guy like that…I don’t think they wanted to be there. It was a favor to the Old Man – nothing else. Don’t sweat it.
UM: They looked like they wanted to kill me.
WHI: Probably did! Sure as hell could – in about 2.2 seconds! (Laughs)
UM: Wasn’t funny at the time – not at all.
WHI: You did fine…and frankly…what you asked…I’ve wondered that as well. Guy like that…got tons of respect for the man. He’s solid. No worries. Been giving us the goods on a lot of stuff going way back – but he’s M.I. to the core. And those people…they think different. They have to – and they can be damn scary to be around some times. And he owes the Old Man – and the Old Man likes you. So it’s all good.
UM: Why haven’t more in the military – why haven’t they come out against this administration? You’ve told me, the Old Man has told me…the Military Insider hinted at it – that they know this administration is doing wrong. Why not come out against them?
WHI: (Long Pause) If they came out against the president…something like that – an openly public and deliberate move against the president…that would be a crisis. A domestic crisis of epic f-cking proportions. That’s now how these kinda things go down kid. That’s Hollywood bullsh-t stuff – that’s not reality.
The Joint Chiefs…those guys are politicians as much as Obama. And the ones right under them – they want that next step up, right? And the administration, they play that card to the hilt. Same thing with Congress. I know for a fact there are Senators – Democrats…who are appalled at what the administration is doing. Appalled at what they are hearing about the character and motivations of this so-called president. But to come right out against him…Reid won’t have it. I don’t know what kinda deal was struck between those two devils – Reid and Obama…but Reid has the Senate on lockdown. And he’s got most of those Democrats in the Senate too damn afraid to say anything – while the rest of them are happy to support the administration because they are cut from that same idiotic socialist progressive cloth as he is – and they think they will get a seat at the big table when all of this shakes out.
Why do you think I am doing it this way? Same damn thing. It’s easy to point the finger and tell somebody to risk everything – not just them but risk their family…everything they got…real easy to sit back and tell somebody they should stand up and do what’s right and go ahead and risk it. Right? Real easy?
Unless it’s YOU that’s at risk. Then it’s a different f-cking story ain’t it?
So I’m doin’ what I’m doin’. The Old Man is doin’ what he’s doin’. And you do what you do. And we hope it’s enough.
UM: Is it? Will it be enough? To defeat Obama?
WHI: The three of us? Hell no. Not even close.
UM: Then what? What will it take?
WHI: What it has always taken when the country is at risk – the American people. We need them. We always have. And God’s grace. If He still gives a sh-t about this country. If He still thinks we are worth the trouble. And I ain’t so sure we are – if we deserve to have another chance.
You’re askin’ what it will take to defeat Obama? Defeat the ones around him? Jarrett? Holder? All of them? It’s gonna take the American people to wake the f-ck up NOW. It’s getting to be go time here. August is when the real race is run…all the way to end. But Romney…he can’t do it alone. People out there who say they ain’t so sure about Romney…this ain’t the time to be talking that perfection sh-t. This ain’t the time to be talking 3rd party candidate bullsh-t. This ain’t the time to be sittin’ this one out.
This IS the time to pay attention…tell everyone you know…everyone you care about…vote out Obama. Vote the son-of-a-bitch out. We got one last chance here to make it right. That’s what I’m doin’ this for. I gotta try and make it right – 2008 was…I can’t leave it like this. I can’t have that be it for me. Just can’t do it. So 2012…hell it’s just a few months away now…we gotta do this together. All of us. Every last one of us. I need your readers help. I need them to speak out to everyone they know. Every last person they know. For the love of God get people motivated to do what’s right this election. None of us can afford to sit this one out. None of us.
I’ll promise you this…if Obama is defeated this election… If the American people send him on his way…there is gonna be a whole sh-t pile of information coming out on what was really going on inside that White House of his and Jarrett’s. People will have the guts to speak out – openly. And they won’t be alone. They will be able to do it without the fear that hangs over them now – all of us…how scary sh-t is right now.
And when all that truth starts to come out…people…the ones willing to listen and understand…they are gonna realize just how close the country…how close we were to the darkness. The future that was gonna be ripped away from their kids and grandkids. And how their votes against Obama saved America. How they saved that future. In the end…like I told you…in the end when the country is in real crisis – it always comes down to the American people to save it.
Godd—mitt then – let’s get to it. Let’s save America.
END.
