2008 Primaries Thread 3: The Rejecting and Denouncening

Bill Clinton Keeps 'Bitter' Alive

Over seven stops in North Carolina, Clinton said "Everywhere I go there are all these people with signs, saying I'm not bitter - I'm not bitter."

The strong sentiments were appreciated by the crowd, but were not entirely accurate. During Clinton's seven stops in North Carolina on Saturday there were no "I'm not bitter" signs. There was a small assortment of people at his later events wearing stickers with the slogan, but many of those sporting the stickers weren't even sure what they meant.

McCain says "I don't think Obama is an elitist" per AP, but from the same article, McCain's aides can't resist:

McCain's aides responded to Obama's criticism with a taunt.

"It's hard to keep a straight face when you're accused of being out of touch by a guy who thinks the whole country is worried about the high price of arugula or that you hunt ducks with a six-shooter," said Mark Salter, a senior adviser to McCain.

when did John McCain last eat arugula? the public needs to know.

way to insult the arugula farmers!

also, it's not far from 'high price of arugula' to rioting for food because the cost of grain went up 120%

but whatevs I'm not here to give Mcnasty tips on how to win

Campaigning by distortion has made these guys weak players. Obama wasn't talking about hunting duck with a six shooter. If these guys have to attack without distortion, they'll be booed off the field, like Penn.

Huh, I just googled "duck" + "hillary" + "six-shooter" and found a Free Republic post from 2002:

To: Paul Atreides
"...Clinton apparently declined to give further details on her days as a game fowl hunter, including who she hunted with, what kind of rifle she used and how many ducks she killed..."

No woosy shotgun for the former first bimbo!

I can top that though...

I've hunted ducks with a six-shooter...

Drunk and Blindfolded.

Behold, the inevitable bitter attack ad.

hey wait a second i noticed SOMETHING in that ad!

http://i26.tinypic.com/2nuqhjt.jpg

that is an extremely elitist-looking building behind those well-off-looking young people

i haven't watched their ad, but i'm sure it would be a lot better if their heads switched places at a high rate of speed

lol gif baiting

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

l o fuckin l

I would never say that that young woman reminds me of Yoda. Never. She doesn't deserve that from me.

And there is nothing whatsoever reminiscent of a lolcat about that photo. Those are real people there. Real sweet, unbitter people. With feelings that could be hurt by callous remarks on the internet.

lol he looks so concerned

what is happening to our faces dear

the timing/rhythm is the best part of it

i dont know how to say this w/o sounding crass but really, would obama ever run an ad that fucking low/retarded/desperate?

The best thing about that ad is that the woman who says that she doesn't cling to her faith because she's bitter or frustrated actually looks very bitter and frustrated.

And the second best thing is jabba the butthurt dude

the timing/rhythm is the best part of it

I concur.

What part of town is your internship in, Adam?

All the people in that ad seem kind of nervous about how not-bitter they are.

Do we think the debate is going to clear this shit up?

Gallup sez Obama seems to be weathering this storm:

Wait, I forget, was that one already posted?

Gallup won't have polled post-this storm yet.

How about someone else's polls?

No one else's are as pretty :(

ed, gallup's results are based on the previous three day's sample average a so of course they've taken samples since this story broke

maybe you can invent a new poll like before

that ad seriously is like a parody or something.... theyre all so bitter about being called bitter!!

lol ethan you just made my day

McCain's moderators, the AP's Ron Fournier and Liz Sidoti, greeted McCain with a box of Dunkin' Donuts. "We spend quite a bit of time with you on the back of the Straight Talk Express asking you questions, and what we've decided to do today was invite everyone else along on the ride," Sidoti explained. "We even brought you your favorite treat."

McCain opened the offering. "Oh, yes, with sprinkles!" he said.

Sidoti passed him a cup. "A little coffee with a little cream and a little sugar," she said.
