* Got this email from the DNC entitled “Its largest ad assault against President Obama yet” complaining about all the negative ads targeted at Obama. It’s kind of funny.
“Obama has been a really horrible president, and now the extreme right-wing and Karl Rove are spending millions noticing that.”
It would be nice to have more positive campaigns, but it’s hard when your opponent is Obama-level horrible. It doesn’t really matter if the other guy is any good, just don’t reelect the failure.
* You know how I said Cory Booker is becoming my favorite Democrat? While on Meet the Press Sunday, he defended Bain Capital and denounced attacks on private equity. That’s pretty damaging to the Obama campaign, so they’ve already pushed Booker into walking back his accidental blurting of the truth. As John Podhoretz says, “Cory Booker fears Obama more than he fears fire.”
Maybe Booker should consider becoming a Republican. We can speak our mind freely. …Well, you might get called a RINO if you’re not careful.
* The Democrats have completely given up on the white working class. Their coalition is basically just going to be college educated white and minorities. Or, to see it more accurately, it’s going to be lower class minorities and college educated whites to rule them and tell them what to do. That’s healthy; I’m sure that will last a long time.
Does it disturb anybody else that basically no white males vote for the Democrats anymore, but that’s still most of their leadership?
* Could the Elizabeth Warren thing get anymore hilarious? It’s like a slow motion trainwreck of awesome. It’s not just a blond-haired, blue-eyed hypocritical liberal claiming to be a minority or just that her evidence of her minority status is that she wrote a recipe for crab and mayonaisse for a book called “Pow Wow Chow,” it’s that she apparently plagiarized that recipe. Could she be anymore awful?
Early on, I got this John Edwards vibe from her when this rich white woman was raging against the rich to the cheers of dumb liberals, and it ends up she is just as horribly slimy and dishonest. Rich people who rail against rich people are all horrible, dishonest people and probably sociopaths. It should have been obvious with Edwards, and it should have been obvious with Warren.
Many of those college educated are those who spent 5 years at a party school working on a pretend degree. Now they owe mega student loans that can’t be bankrupted out of.
Reminds me of rent to own furniture. Shiny useless crap you pay on forever.
The other group is the moocher class. This is not a racial group. Minority status doesn’t make someone part of this group. Being willing to have the democrats hand you someone else’s money does.
“John Edwards vibe” – I’m pretty sure no one has used that phrase yet, Frank. But if you keep having more of them, get some help.
At least Warren hasn’t gotten one of her campaign staff pregnant. As far as we know.
You know, I’m not sure what went wrong. I went to college and came back listening to Johnny Cash and Bill Monroe and voting for Republicans.
Man, I must have gone to a terrible college.
Don’t forget that Edwards made his money in one of the scumbaggiest ways possible. (Yes, that word sounds terrible, and I still love it.) He was a lawyer abusing OB-Gyns by suing them for something medically speaking could not possibly be their fault. Now there’s some health care reform for you. If you’re having trouble finding a good doctor to deliver your baby, call up Mr. Edwards and yell at him for a while.
John Edwards and his ilk have driven doctors out of the OB/GYN specialty. I always had that bastard’s number, but I thought at least he was keen on his equally-liberal wife. They’re even worse than they look.
As for Booker, well, JPod is right, but come on. Obama is waaaaaay more destructive than mere fire.
“Does it disturb anybody else that basically no white males vote for the Democrats anymore, but that’s still most of their leadership?”
Not true. I’m sure plenty of dead ones do.
“Their coalition is basically just going to be college educated white and minorities. Or, to see it more accurately, it’s going to be lower class minorities and college educated whites to rule them and tell them what to do. That’s healthy; I’m sure that will last a long time.”

Bob, do you suppose ACORN heard someone say, “Vote for Obama? Over my dead body!”, and it gave them an idea?
