2008 USP(G)ET pt. II: counting the days to 2012 primary thread 1

Yeah but Dobbs is bookended by Blitzer & Brown who, if nothing else, aren't overtly racist cranks. xxp

“When times are good, people say they want someone like them to be president, but when times are bad, they want someone who can solve the problems, no matter how unlike them he is,” says the Obama confidant. “FDR was hardly a fucking man of the people, you know?”

SIR-

I don't see what the big deal about that quote is.

Blitzer

No, he's just the most inept moron on any of the cable news networks.

so troopergate/branchflower isnt getting any traction is it

Nope.

Mostly, I think, because Obama's not running with it.

she said something similar elsewhere recently, after the emmys I think, and said "anything anyone can do to make sure I don't have to play this woman after november, please do it". so I take it this refutes the sometimes repeated claim that she is a republican (well maybe she is/was and is just not INSANE).

granted, it's only been a day since the initial statements from troopergate.

It won't make much a diff anyway, unless something really weird happens, and Sarah Palin gets convicted of something. Even if Todd is convicted, no one who's a Palin supporter will care.

re: Fey. Please hollywood, don't dare people to send you away from Earth. I love you, Tina, but no.

palin clears palin:

i think obama would prefer to not bother acknowledging palin beyond a few subtle swipes and let her do his work for him.

Palin is doing God's work, omar. Oh...wait. I think I see a connection.

Mostly, I think, because Obama's not running with it.

That, plus there's a second, separate investigation going on which Palin started as a distraction -- quite literally, she filed it against herself! -- but which has come back to bite her badly because it's being aggressively pursued. I think the idea is to let it all compound.

Epic fail from the ever-feckless Palin:

Palin mistakes fans for protesters at Va. rally
By BOB LEWIS
Associated Press Writer
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin mistook some of her own fans for hecklers Monday at a rally that drew thousands.

A massive crowd of at least 20,000 spread across the parking lot of Richmond International Raceway, and scores of people on the outer periphery more than 100 yards from the stage could not hear.

"Louder! Louder!" they began chanting, and the cry spread across the crowd to Palin's left. Some pointed skyward, urging that the volume be increased.

Palin stopped her remarks briefly and looked toward the commotion.

"I hope those protesters have the courage and honor to give veterans thanks for their right to protest," she said.

Some in the crowd tried to shout toward her what was really being said, but she couldn't hear them.

i saw video of that Palin rally- her husband steps in and whispers in her ear to explain what they were really saying.

WTF @ Palin "happy to be cleared of any hint of any ethical wrongdoing".

If she says it hard enough she'll believe it. The civil court cases will be funny.

mccain will dissapear after election day but we'll still have troopergate to follow

Obama will take away your lipstick

McCain - Palin Tradition

By Hank Williams Jr.

The left wing liberal media have

Always been a real close knit family

But, most of the American People

Don't believe em anyway ya see

Stop and think it over

Before you make your decision

If they smell something

They're gonna come down strong

It's a McCain - Palin tradition

Now this old Union's got problems

That is plain to see

The Democrats bankrupted Fannie Mae N Freddie Mac

Just like 1, 2, 3

The bankers didn't want to make all those bad loans,

But Bill Clinton said you got to

Now they want a bail out, what I'm talking about

Is a Democrat liberal who doo

CHORUS

John N Sarah tell ya

Just what they think

And they're not gonna blink

And they're gonna fix this country

Cause they're just like you N ole Hank

Yes John is a maverick

And Sarah fixed Alaska's broken condition

They're gonna go just fine

We're headed for better times

It's a McCain - Palin tradition

I am very proud of America's name

Bu no society is perfect

And we have had our stains

If I'm down at the coffee shop and

Somebody wants to give our flag friction

We say please move on

Cause we're standing strong

That's an old John McCain tradition

CHORUS

John N Sarah tell ya

Just what they think

And they're not gonna blink

And they're gonna fix this country

Cause they're just like you N ole Hank

Yes John is a maverick

And Sarah fixed Alaska's broken condition

They're gonna go just fine

We're headed for better times

It's a McCain - Palin tradition

Some are bound to tell you I'm

Preaching to the choir

And that is very true

And we are going even higher

Like a mama bear in Idaho

She'll protect your family's condition

If you mess with her cubs

She's gonna take of the gloves

It's an American female tradition

CHORUS

John N Sarah tell ya

Just what they think

And they're not gonna blink

And they're gonna fix this country

Cause they're just like you N ole Hank

Yes John is a maverick

And Sarah fixed Alaska's broken condition

They're gonna go just fine

We're headed for better times

It's a McCain - Palin tradition

I am ready for some bullshit

all my rowdy friends are here for election night!!

The young man said he wasn't an expert on politics by any stretch. Asked about Barack Obama, he replied: "I don't know anything about him. He seems like a good guy. I like him."

Johnston didn't register in time to vote, according to the Mat-Su Division of Elections Office in Wasilla. But he's still rooting for John McCain and Sarah Palin.

"I just hope she wins," he said. "She's my future mother-in-law. She better win."
