On the face of it, that is not very plausible. Obama was in the Senate. His Secretary of State was in the Senate. Is it plausible that his former colleagues would say this to Scarborough and not to either Clinton or Obama first? There may well be disgruntled Democratic Senators, in fact I'm sure there are, who are down on Obama, just as there were a few disgruntled Republican Senators who were down on Bush back in '06 and '08 and even down on Reagan back in '82--there are always people who will be disgruntled when things aren't going well. But I would be more interested to hear specifics about why they are disgruntled, what he should have done differently than to hear Scarborough quote them as saying, "Do you believe what he is going today?" What exactly was it that provoked that comment? Are they really disgruntled because of something that is in Obama's control?
