A moronic statement.
An asshole, posting. |

I hope the Obama campaign reads and regurgitates Sullivan's essay verbatim.

It was insanely well-put.

Guys like Scarborough, Sullivan and Huntsman make me realize there is still quality thinkers in the party that left me that I haven't left (yet).

It's great that that came out the same day Romney was video taped singing Who Let The Dogs Out.

If I'm not mistaken that happened in '08. |

Or earlier; it was definitely floating around during the 2008 primaries.

Appealing to the worst instincts and urges seems to be a less surprising strategy to win when you say "Of a subset of voters who are Republican Primary voters IN SOUTH CAROLINA. I mean, I know we're supposed to say that the country is post-racial and all that, but c'mon. These people are voting Newt because they liked the way he "put Juan Williams in his place" and have a fantasy wherein he will "put Obama in his place" in debates. That's a lot of the motivation, in SC. The more a candidate is not afraid to have the dogwhistles make sounds that actual people can hear, the better they do there, R-wise. This has been the case for a while.
Also, they've constructed a myth that the President is an empty suit in front of a socialist TelePrompTer that gets its speeches beamed in from Bill Ayers in an underground bunker and that he's some kind of intellectual lightweight. I have been disappointed by him in a lot of specific issues and legislative battles, maneuvers and process issues, but they guy is brilliant. They're running against a fiction.

Man, Mitt Romney is so not a closer. He somehow managed to lose both Iowa and South Carolina in the same week.

I know he was crazy and not in control of himself and all that, but I see that mugshot of that Laughner kid and I want to split open his head with a lead pipe. |

re: Obama singing Sweet Home Chicago. It's getting hilarious how Obama can't not be the coolest cucumber alive.
