2008 Primaries Thread 2: THE QUICKENING

that's what I thought too

Really? I thought her closing statement was the high-point of her debate performance.

Wait, I thought folx who actually attended these things would want them to go on forever, like gabbneb.

I thought her closing statement was the high-point of her debate performance.

I dunno I'm never moved by these bullshit "I feel your pain" rhetorical displays. that's just me tho. It seemed to me like everybody stood up and clapped cuz she a) made some nice speechifyin for once and b) it was the end

"let me tell you about [insert name], who lost their [insert precious possession], after so many years of [working hard/serving their country], that's not the America I know" = zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

you don't know any of these people and live in a hyperisolated bubble of security gimme a break.

who is more isolated? ts: Hillary Clinton vs. Shakey Mo Collier

I'm sorry did you say something? who let you through my phalanz of armed guards and handlers?

i guess you can't hear me through the Teachers' Association representatives and firefighters who are thronging you for autographs

I guess he can't hear you through the sanctimony.

I'm fairly certain Hillary Clinton - like the majority of the world's rich and powerful - can't remember, much less describe, the last time she went shopping for groceries, or rode a bus, or had an interaction with a stranger that was not mediated by several layers of security, press, and consultants. gimme a break. these people are not normal, average folk, the "I AM ONE OF YOU" rhetoric is always always bullshit.

I'm fairly certain the Cookie Monster - like the majority of the world's rich and powerful - can't remember, much less describe, the last time she went shopping for groceries, or rode a bus, or had an interaction with a stranger that was not mediated by several layers of security, press, and consultants. gimme a break. these people are not normal, average folk, the "I AM ONE OF YOU" rhetoric is always always bullshit.

thats not true cause why? i saw hillary on the 38 just the other day1

COOKIE MONSTER FOR PRESIDENT

HE UNDERSTANDS MY NEED FOR COOKIES

I had to change the channel several times last night because, as an Obama supporter, it was just brutal to watch him ramble on in his answers. As noted above, he stumbles through these responses, lacking the confidence that Hillary obviously has.

Another thing. this one really bothers me. Obama has gotten into the habit of answering questions with "I will be happy to debate that this with you." ANd then moves onto a different subject. I just want to scream, You are in a debate now! I'm surprised Hil hasn't called him out on that one.

dude cookie monster is not a chick

to go by hillary's remarks last night, she spends most of her time on the campaign trail having her arms grabbed at.
