I do keep "deep throat" in mind. But I do so understanding that one example of a real whistleblower does not imply that all so-called "insiders" are the real deal.
Besides, "deep throat" was communicating with established journalists working for a respected newspaper... Not an unsourced Internet blog.
But, I do reserve the right to change my thoughts if anything actually ends up being verified from this source. As it stands now, it looks to be opportunistic to me.

For Senator Barack Obama's 2008 Presidential Campaign, Genachowski was Chairman of the Technology, Media and Telecommunications Policy Working Group, which created the Obama Technology and Innovation Plan.[6] He also advised and guided the Campaign’s innovative use of technology and the Internet for grassroots engagement and participation.
Author’s Note: As our many readers know, our last discussion with our Washington D.C. Insider source revealed that the media was about to release speculative reports of a Hillary Clinton Vice Presidential offer from the Obama White House. Within 48 hours of publication, such noted media outlets as CNN, Fox News, MSNBC, and Drudge were all reporting on that very topic. While not the first time the Insider proved accurate in their predictions, it was certainly the most notable to date.

So Rahm Emanuel is not the one that gave you the go ahead to speak more freely? No comment on that. But I do have a lot of information I am prepared to share with you if you wish to hear it.
Ok…do you have any details on former Chief of Staff Emanuel’s departure? Sure. (long pause)
Well go ahead – what… (interrupts) Rahm Emanuel left the White House willingly, but he was also under strong suggestion to leave. He has not been a dominant figure in the West Wing for some time now.
He was the White House Chief of Staff – how could he not have been a dominant figure? He has been marginalized. Pushed aside. Even his direct access to the president was reduced more recently. It happens. There is always an ongoing fight to gain the ear of the president. Rahm lost that fight, and now he is gone. If he hadn’t left, I am certain he would have been forced out, which would have been no easy task because the guy is a fighter.
Who marginalized him? Good question.
Thank you – but do you have the answer? Sure… (clears throat) It was mainly three people. Valerie Jarret, David Axelrod, and Michelle Obama.
The First Lady? Michelle Obama wanted Rahm Emanual out as Chief of Staff? Why? Why? From what I was told, she never trusted Rahm. Not totally anyways. And when Rahm voiced his opinion in opposition of moving on health care, she and Jarret were apparently offended. Those two were the primary opposition against Emanuel, with Axelrod acting as the go between. Eventually, Axelrod sided with Jarret and the First Lady, and Rahm was left standing on his own- especially after Larry left. There was apparently an open fight between the two at one point.
Between Rahm Emanuel and Michelle Obama? Yes. A loud shouting match. She stood over Rahm and told him to shut the -expletive- up. Pointed her finger right into his face and told him to shut the -expletive- up.

But honestly, I'm wondering if the Obama's even want to be in the White House anymore.
Reports about them being tired of it and of Michelle saying 'it's hell living in the White House'
have slipped out.

Nice rumor to release before the election. Although in the end it's still just a rumor
