Former "This Week" host and National Public Radio veteran Cokie Roberts blamed conspiracy filmmaker Michael Moore on Sunday for causing Sen. John Kerry to lose the presidential election.

"I think Michael Moore actually had a very major impact - a negative impact - on the Democratic Party," Roberts told NBC's "Chris Matthews Show."

"I think he exemplified all of the things that people hate about Democrats. And the fact that he was - it was a hate-America-first campaign and that hurts the Democrats every time."

Adding insult to injury, Roberts also contended that Moore's "physical appearance did not help."

liberal cat fight...

[sabe@q.com]

Its not like it was Kerry's fault he lost the election. Kerry could have told Moore to pound sand instead of sitting him next to Carter at the DNC convention.

[DOGEY]

What more can be said.

"I think he exemplified all of the things that people hate about Democrats. And the fact that he was - it was a hate-America-first campaign and that hurts the Democrats every time."

Mostly everything but being in office, thank you.

[dansangel]

Absolutely refreshing! :-)

[mewzilla]

I think he exemplified all of the things that people hate about Democrats.

Like the tendency to blame someone else for one's actions? LOL. That's funny, so did John Kerry.

Moore must have known Cokie was going to smoke him, he shaved and cleaned up for the Tonight Show.

LOL

[umgud]

Bingo! JFK sure didn't distance himself from MM.

[wingnutx]

Hah!

[Pharmboy]

Fatboy sure didn't help them.

But, Cokie sweetheart, how 'bout your fellow newsie Dan Rather? Any opinion about how HE might have hurt your cause or do you think he helped?

[sabe@q.com]

Did you hear Michael Moore say that if it wasn't for him, Kerry wouldn't have gotten the votes that he did get.

[annyokie]

Bwahahahaha! I love it when they eat their own.

[dasboot]

A staged purge.

LOL!

While I certainly don't think Moore helped, the fact is that Kerry lost because he was a lousy candidate who waffled constantly and stood for nothing, and he was up against a candidate who took a firm stand and left little or no doubt about where he stood. Most people want a president who came make a damn decision and that clearly was NOT Kerry.

[DCPatriot]

"...sitting him next to Carter at the DNC convention.

That alone cost them a ton of votes, IMO.

And what was he wearing at the time? Didn't he have his baseball hat on?

[RobFromGa]

"I think he exemplified all of the things that people hate about Democrats. And the fact that he was - it was a hate-America-first campaign and that hurts the Democrats every time."

Yep, the #1 thing Americans hate about Democrats is that fact that Democrats hate America.

[stm]

If that's the case, I move that MM be designated head of the DNC, go I have a second?

[F16Fighter]

BWAAAAAH!!

[sabe@q.com]

Its not how Moore looks but what he says that scares me.

[mewzilla]

Ah, Dems....It's always someone else's fault.

[BluH2o]

"I think he (Michael Moore) exemplified all of the things that people hate about Democrats.

M. Moore sitting next to former President Jimmy Carter, while listening to Kerry's "Reporting for Duty" speech at the 'Rat convention in Boston was the clincher ... no question.

Adding insult to injury, Roberts also contended that Moore's "physical appearance did not help."

[John Jorsett]

People have an antipathy to fat, slovenly, America-hating blowhards. Who could have predicted that?

[Kurt_D]

So are we going to send a Fruit Basket and a nice Thank You card to Big Mike's attention?

[freedumb2003]

More self-delusion from the Leftist MSM.

They keep looking for scapegoats rather than walking up to the fact that Kerry and the DNC were absolutely on message and the American people saw the message clearly AND REJECTED IT.

The country has been going Rightward since Reagan. The 8 years of that buffoon intern-screwer was a result of his running a right-of-center campaign and appearing to be centrist (remember "triangulation?").

The Left just can't to seem to get over the fact that most of America doesn't like Socialism.

[The Spirit Of Allegiance]

Michael Moore: THANKS FOR EVERYTHING!

[jwalsh07]

Michael Moore was in Cambodia too?

[MisterRepublican]

Isn't it sweet to know Moore is now working to elect Hitlery Rodham-Stalin in 08?

[COBOL2Java]

Bwahahahaha! I love it when they eat their own.

Bleah! Let's avoid that image vis-a-vis Michael Moore, OK?

[FreedomPoster]

Worthwhile Moore image. Linked in deference to you dialup folks.

Still, the shave and new clothes didn't help all that much ....

Nice post...I guess the pilsbury boy won't be taking the kooky cookie to the Rats monster ball on Jan. 1...Bubba may be playing his sex[i mean sax]to an empty house again...if that happens, maybe Bubba and Moore can perform the socialist twostep together in order to ensure good MSM coverage at the event and which I'm sure will cause the MSM to breath lustfully and spew all over us

[sabe@q.com]

It will be interesting to see if Hillary Clinton imbraces Moore.

[Smokin' Joe]

no way...send 50 lbs of something FATTENING! LOL!

[sabe@q.com]

oops embrace

[Smokin' Joe]

FIrst time in a few years it hasn't been Bush's fault!

[Reactionary]

Cokie suprises me on rare occasion.

And Michael Moore is a moronic, conspiratorial slob.

[beyond the sea]

Speaking of "the tendency to blame someone" -- maybe while Cokie is playing the blame game, she might want to talk about John Kerry and his band of VVAW goons who had her late father, Cong. Hale Boggs, on their hit list!

[ArmedNReady]

See....plastic surgery can improve anyone's looks.

[annyokie]

Gah! I should have phrased that differently!

[beyond the sea]

But, Cokie sweetheart, how 'bout your fellow newsie Dan Rather? Any opinion about how HE might have hurt your cause or do you think he helped?

Perfectly true, but she'll never go there.

[mewzilla]

Good point! Well so much for the liberal/media elite, eh? Talk about an oxymoron. These folks are so thick they can't even see that they're embarrassing themselves. Again.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Roberts also contended that Moore's "physical appearance did not help."

I guess it's true that you can't see Cokie in mirror. At least she can't. If they ever start enforcing restrictions on voting by necro-Americans, Cokie's gonna need a doctor's note to vote. She could be the lead in "Night of the Living Democrats". She looks like a dead woman, and I don't mean a fresh one either.

[Uncle Hal]

I love the sounds and sights of liberals going after each other in the morning.

[beyond the sea]

Rather

And..... maybe Cokie can blame the bloggers and FR ("a bastion of right wing lunacy" - LOL) for Kerry's loss.

[G.Mason]

Cokie Roberts with the vacant stare? That Cokie Roberts?

Truth to be known, young, fat people probably don't like old skinny people. So what's her point?

That the party she is in bed with, that she aided and abetted all these years, the party that nominated that tratorous imbicile, Kerry, and let it all hang out for all Americans to see, now needs a scape goat?

The bed she sleeps in with Soros, moveon.com, Kennedy, Hillary, Schumer, etal, is not now to her liking?

"Kookey" needs to get a life. No one is listening to her anymore.
