I hate when that happens. I'm only sticking around for another 9 minutes. I'm going to watch Boston Legal. I've missed the last two episodes -- I thought they had run out of new ones but they hadn't.

From the stupid civil suit I had to go through ... my lawyer ... he won the biggest case ever against a medical insurance co. in U.S. history (PM me if you want the story)
I saw you have to be nice to who you are speaking too ... jury or crowd @ a political event .... and when Hillary gets going she is brutal.

Maybe we're jumping the gun here, but can you imagine debates between Obama and McCain?
It's gonna be Kennedy vs. Nixon all over again. That's the sort of match where the referee should just step in between the fighters and call it off after a few punches.
Nothing will make McCain look more like a grumpy, tired old loser of a man faster than going up against Obama.
Ronald Reagan could manage to seem more vigorous and youthful than Walter Mondale...but Ronald Reagan he ain't.
Who SAYS Obama can't win the GE?

And I don't think it would even be a fair contest.
Four years ago it was different...* was a joke, but Kerry was not exactly Mr. Electricity by contrast. The big advantages he had were intelligence and no need to have someone prompting him in his ear through a bulge on his back. But Obama, damn...he's got it all.
All of a sudden I'm scared for him...I'm afraid that somewhere, tonight, someone is taking the gloves off, having determined that drastic times call for drastic measures.
I'm not sure I want to see what the drastic measures are.

62. That's the story all right. |

Well, looks like Keith and Tweety are packing it in, so I will too. No need to hang around for Norah.
It's probably just as well. Keith's getting big laughs from the crew while Tweety is getting annoyed and punchy and trying to score points against him.
Tweety: "That Obama booster was unable to come up with anything Obama has done in the Senate"
Keith: "Excuse me, but could he come up with anything the SENATE has done in the past however many years?"
(Huge laughter from tech crew)
Tweety (peeved at Keith for getting the big laugh): "Hey, I gotta ask these questions. That's why we call it Hardball!"
Keith: "But this ISN'T Hardball--it's PRIMARY COVERAGE!"
Tweety (petulant): "Well, he STILL didn't have an answer! I think when the guests don't have answers, we need to call them on it!"
Keith: "We'll be back with Nora O'Donnell. That's enough from us. Good night."

He tried to force the guy from Texas into an embarassing silence. When they got back to the desk, Keith says "In defense of Sen. Obama, name one accomplishment the US Congress has accomplished over the last two years."
Laughter, then Tweety meekly says "well, why do you think they call it Hardball?" Keith doesn't miss a beat, and says "but this ISN'T Hardball, it's election coverage" and the room erupts in laughter. :rofl:

Took me a while to paraphrase it, but that was it.
Keith essentially slapped Tweety back into place by reminding him that they weren't doing Hardball!
It's a good thing they were signing off. Otherwise they might have come to blows on live TV!

74. Oh, but you wouldn't think that from reading their posts. |
|
In other places, on other threads, said poster has claimed to be a military veteran...from the Vietnam era, I believe.
Yet said poster seems to be extremely familiar with the entire history of Katy Tur's family. Without having any real interest in Keith Olbermann per se, you understand, said person can quote chapter and verse about the history of the person he's living with.
Interesting? You be the judge.
