2008 Primaries Thread

I'm sure this has been posted before, but this is a very effective sounding ad. Let's hope there is a barrage of equally-cutting ads over the next week.

Tiger on Barack

i smell fanfic

"trusted in times of crisis"

GO ON MENTION 9/11 ONE LAST TIME.

I thought they'd forget to mention 9/11, but, phew, McCain managed to work it into his statement.

the Beeb: "this was an extraordinary declaration of love; I don't believe I've ever heard something so passionate"

hannity spent the whole first hour of his show today pretending to be pro-mccain, having "seen the light" that the GOP needs to "modernize."

he even took calls from listeners who were all pissed at him for selling out.

then he was all lol jk

Nader is getting ready run. I hope Dobbs enters the race just to fuck up shit for the right wing!

Dobbs will become my new hero if he does (even tho I hate him).

Dobbs: I'd be a 'Candidate of Last Resort'. Still, he says, "Never say never."

Okay, now I'm imagining Lou Dobbs singing Romeo Void songs.

"I think it would be better
If we...SLEPT together."

lol

I hate you Ned, for making me think about Lou Dobbs sex.

Could be worse. Could be Glenn Beck.

Ew.

Glenn Beck hate sex.

Obama coming to Minneapolis on Saturday!!!

McCain's distortions are making Romney look good in this debate.

Old white guys smilin'.

(McCain/Rudy 08!)

McCain's distortions are making Romney look good in this debate.

Have to agree - I don't know which one is actually giving the real story, but Romney's very organized, point-by-point comebacks made it seem like an open-and-shut case.

WELL GOOD. GO MITT.

Meanwhile, Lou Dobbs refers to the 'so-called Latino vote.' Matthew Yglesias asks the right question: "So what does he (Dobbs) call it?"

TPM seems to think Romney got beat in this debate, or at least that he faded badly at the end. Depressing if true.

Synchronized smirks!

Do you link every Yglesias blogpost? xpost

Sorry to over-read tea leaves, but Romney's smirk screams "despair and resignation," while McCain's smirk screams "I'm finally almost free of all you dummies."

Hardly, but I do like Yglesias.

I like to think they're both making fun of Ron Paul's nose.

He is quite the Peter Pan looking motherfucker

When Ron Paul drops out of the race, he'll have a second career as a villian in either the new Batman or Superman movie franchises.

this is by far McCain's worst performance -- why is he so snippy? He's in the lead!

ron paul 08:
i got no strings to hold me down
to make me fret or make me frown

I'm very relieved to hear you say that, Alfred.

TPM said that, earlier today, right-wing radio hosts -- e.g., Rush Limbaugh -- were cozying up to McCain (or maybe just resigning themselves to the idea that he'll be the GOP nomine), and modifying their stance against McCain. Anyone heard anything like this? I was hoping between now and Super Tuesday, those GOP forces would attack McCain viciously.

I'm going to regret this in the morning, but Romney is...civilized and cool.

I prefer "PRESIDENTIAL."

that's cant!

If Obama's the nominee, I hope McCain reprises this performance.
