Norah O'Donnell is beating up the head of the Republican party Mike Duncan

[wndycty]

When he kept complaining that WARDROBEGATE was sexist she promised to ask Howard Dean how much the DNC paid for Obama and Biden's ties. . .LOL

[tridim]

1. It was funny how she pointed out that MSNBC doesn't buy her clothes..

Right after that hack accused her of hypocrisy. :rofl:

[bushisanidiot]

10. Wow, the MSM actually stood up to a repuke for once!

i love it!!

[napi21]

2. HA HA! How many ties can you buy for $150,000???? Damn! n/t

[babylonsister]

3. They're again dismissing this as a non-issue. Has any other

campaign ever doled out $150,000 for clothing? If I were a rethug, I'd be outraged and that has nothing to do with sexism despite how they try to spin it.

[burythehatchet]

12. When they are so dismissive, to me that means there is some illegality there.

maybe the IRS will need to look at little Piper's Louie bag.

[blogslut]

4. He started out by personally insulting her

Saying it was a puredee fact that MSNBC paid for her clothes. It just got worse from that. He was a defensive ass and she did not appreciate it.

[polichick]

5. Great moment! He kept saying how disappointed he was in her...

...for perpetuating the story, and he asked if Norah inquires about the prices of our guys' ties ~ she turned it to be about WHO PAYS.

Nice work Norah!!

[tishaLA]

6. It's sad that someone as inept as Norah can make someone look so

unprepared. The RNC/McCain camp is phoning it in at this point. He couldn't even defend using the term "redistribution of wealth." It was pathetic.

7. that's funny.

Rick Sanchez was just on with a CNN political director, and saying "How can Palin say she didn't know about the clothes, when she was WEARING new clothes?!"


The CNN person also said that they talked to a McCain insider within the hour who said that there HAD been frustration within the McCain camp over the weekend bc of the polls, but that in the last couple of days, their internal polling had finally started to show the race closer....hasn't the McCain campaign been saying this about their "internal polling" for weeks? Now all of the sudden, their "internal polling" shifted over the weekend? Whatever.

[Me.]

17. What I Wondered

Is why that CNN political editor kept calling it the Palin Campaign. Isn't it the McShame campaign?

[burythehatchet]

8. He's quite an impressive spokesman

:rofl:

[Fleshdancer]

9. Duncan should have done his homework...

...before going on air and assuming that MSNBC pays for O'Donnell's wardrobe. That was a pretty stupid statement.

[pdxmom]

11. Wish she had followed up on the latest crap they're spewing about

Obama wanting the SCOTUS to go farther to redistribute wealth. That is the exact OPPOSITE of what Obama said and the MSM needs to actually do their damn job and report on the outright lie this is.

[Ikonoklast]

13. He ran out of feet to stick in his lying mouth

Every statement he made was wrong. No wonder they are fucking everything up, with this guy in charge of their party.

How can one person contain so much stupid?

[JaneQPublic]

14. Was it sexist when the GOP made a huge deal of Edwards' $400 haircut?

As I recall, they made a habit of calling him "The Breck Girl."

[Riddler]

15. I wish she'd have just said, "it's my show and I'll ask the questions I want to ask,

if you won't or can't answer them, then we'll just cut the interview and move on to the next story. It's your choice."

[JuniperLea]

16. The GOP had no problem complaining on $$ spent on Dem haircuts!

Bullshit.

[genna]

18. GO Norah! She is flighty and a little silly, but she showed today she can be a journalist too.

1. Why did he dodge by trying to shame her?

2. How did he think he would get away with not answering the question by labeling HER sexist?

3. How can the Republicans throw the charge of sexist/sexism or an old boys club when they don't believe in identity politics?

4. How can the RNC and the McCain campaign coordinate an expense for clothes when it is illegal for a candidate to use campaign contributions for mortgage payments, clothes and other personal expenses?
