The DUmmies are in panic mode. "Obama & Biden's Gaffe-In" is tanking in the ratings, while "Maverick" and "Wonder Woman" are climbing. So here's an audience-grabber: Get Barry a little "Northern Exposure." Go north, young messiah, north to Alaska! That's the suggestion offered in this THREAD, "How about this for a ballsy idea for Obama...." So let's tune into this episode of "Desperate WhiteHousedrives," in Bolshevik Red, while the commentary of your humble guest correspondent, Charles Henrickson, enjoying "Terminator: The Sarah Palin Chronicles," is in the [Barackets]:
How about this for a ballsy idea for Obama....
[Is that you, Jesse Jackson?]
Barack should hold a town hall meeting . . . in Wasilla, Alaska.
[The Thrilla in Wasilla!]
And don't screen the questions.
["Um, uh, uh, to answer that question with, uh, specificity, is, uh, above my pay grade."]
THAT would be political theater.
[GREAT idea! Although I think it's already been suggested by one of Obama's advisers--you know, the new guy, kinda pudgy, balding, glasses . . . oh, what's his name again? That's right! Grove. Kurt Grove.]
I say he rides in on a snowmobile . . .
[snowmachine . . .]
with a moose he just shot. . . .
[Obama's good at shooting the bull.]
Would generate at least 3 news cycles of buzz. . . .
[Would generate at least 3 flocks of buzzards, circling his political carcass.]
What would McCain do in response?
[His impression of Montgomery Burns saying, "Excellent!"]
he'd be fine with the residents of Wasilla.
[They're used to field-dressing opossum.]
Even while Obama was overseas, the press was already saying he didn't get a bump from his trip.
[Hey, he picked up HUGE support in Berlin!]
If Obama was in Wasilla, if I was McCain, I would create an outlandishly lying bullsh*t ad with Palin that took something totally out of context, like say his "Clinging to religion and guns" statement. I'd put her in the ad saying something like "Barack Obama thinks he knows Wasilla. But he doesn't know anything about small-towns. He believes you all "cling to guns and religion". He talks to regular folks one way, but in San Francisco, he'll say something else. . . ."
[And that would all be . . . TRUE.]
he will be fine in AK, and plus it might be a chance to push some anger out of some racist locals and catch it on camera. . . .
[When they start speaking in Norse Code.]
How would one go about passing this on to anybody within the campaign?
[Contact campaign adviser Mr. Kurt Grove at 1-800-ROVE-YMB.]
And invite her. Why not?
[Barack Obama vs. the Hockey Mama.]
I just hope the M$M wouldn't simply frame this is some kind of publicity stunt.
[Don't worry, they won't. They're not used to reporting the truth.]
Not only Wasilla though. He should tour all of Alaska.
[Yeah, he should visit our 57th state! (Or was Hawaii #57? I'm confused.)]
Anchorage, Fairbanks, Wasilla, Juneau...
[. . . and Nome and Point Barrow and Ketchikan and Prudhoe Bay... YEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRGGGHHH!!!!!!!!!]
To go to Wasilla alone would look too much like a stunt, maybe a little bit antagonistic. But as part of an Alaskan tour? Sh*t, he should kick that off tomorrow.
[North to Alaska! Every city and hamlet and igloo! Five weeks, minimum!]
would it be totally awesome if he carried Alaska!
[And lost the other 56.]
Send your idea to the campaign--I mean it.
[c/o kgrove@obama.nut]
The Republicans would pack the place. And it's only 3 electoral votes. He'd do better spending another day in Pennyslvania.
[Shhh!! Go with the half-baked Alaska idea. Besides, they're bitter in PA, too.]
She's running against Joe Biden, as it were. Not Obama.
[Joe who??]
Biden should do this, not Obama
[Biden is boarding the Amtrak to Wasilla even as we speak.]
How about Biden and Hillary?
[Sorry, Barack threw Hillary under the snowmachine.]
They could do a great one-two punch!
[Don't let Biden near the punch!]
remember Obama is running against McCain not Palin
[Actually, Obama is running against himself. And he's losing.]
Let Biden do it
[Beltway Joe to the rescue!]
Send Messiah to ANWR--I mean it.
Sending Obama to Wasilla is like sending the New York Rangers to Mystery!
“October 16, 1972: House Majority Leader Hale Boggs, D-Louisiana and Rep. Nick Begich, D-Alaska: Both were killed when their plane disappeared over Alaska.”
It’s a tough state, and it has a lady Governor. She, of course, uses lipstick.
He does even better spending other people's money in the Senate, why not go with his strength?
(Translation: "OOPS!")
BUMP
Obama is REALLY tough, braving the Bering Strait!
That could be quite appropriate, Biden may be the last sitting Senator who voted to admit AK to the union five decades ago. Or maybe it just seems as though he's been in the Senate that long, sometimes I get confused about that myself.
Someone should tell the DE voters that no matter what they have been told, there's really nothing in the state Constitution that says Joe HairPlugs has a lifetime appointment to that office.
"Please come to Seward's Folly, Obamassiah! Your supporters up here NEED you!"
Let Mikey do it, he's much more photogenic than Joe HairPlugs and he's smart enough to not say anything stupid on camera.
"BE NICE TO ICE!"
Somebody should tell them Election Day is NOVEMBER 5th.
That’s a primary (caucus) poster... if it’s a recent picture, I guess they could take down the poster, but there was a vote Feb 5th...
I know, I know. . . . But still, we want the Democrats to turn out to vote on NOVEMBER 5th.
oops! Hope I didn’t blow opsec on the operation...
;-)
The weird thing about this is, they really seem to think that Obama can compete among everyday small town folks in Alaska, if he only shoots a moose and tours.
