It's a terrible angle play, given Lew's history. How can Obama embrace the meme of the 99% with Lew as Chief of Staff?

Don't buy the vote angle. The Republicans have always been trying to churn that meme up, but the intermittent polls that I've seen don't show much true erosion.

Bill Daley has been talking about leaving for a couple months, Obama couldn't talk him out of it. He had time and could have done far better than Lew.
