John Kerry's Winning Strategy (Very Funny)

libertas ^ | October 9

Well, I am left wondering waht color that poor li'l pony's eyes actaully were!

I like ponies. Not in JF'ngK's hands, however.

[pcottraux]

What was the actual goof? Is there any visual footage? All I heard was profanity.

The Republican Convention was exponential better than the Dems. More hopeful, more energetic, more joyous and optimistic, everyone having a good time...

[dr_who_2]

Yes, it was real.

[pcottraux]

But what happened that was a goof? What went wrong with the balloons.

[dr_who_2]

There just weren't enough balloons falling down on Kerry, his goofball running mate whose name escapes me, and their spouses. One or two of the networks happened to play the audio from a convention organizer playing just when he was yelling at the people above the convention floor to get the balloons to drop right.

[pcottraux]

HA HA HA HAAA!!! I didn't see that part, not wanting to watch all of the gloom and doom Dem convention. But I wished I had seen that!

Maybe it'll be in this movie.

"Didn't see anything, just heard it. I haven't seen this footage."

FR has it. They are using them in their current fundraising ads.

In a bizarre moment, top Kerry aide Jim Loftus rants about an advance team’s inability to get a pony into a hotel room for a birthday celebration. He fumes: “When I was an advance guy, if someone said ‘get a pony on the 10th floor of this hotel in four hours’ … I would have said: ‘What color eyes should it have?’”

I'm sure he would have done something else to the pony too. !!!! EEEEWWWWWW !!!!! RATS !!!!!

I have got to see this. been hearing about it for a month or so :-)))

The trailer is edited for language. The film clip is NOT (and it does have quite a bit of bad language).

[festus]

The Guardian states: “There is little doubt that many Democrats (or many potential Democratic voters) will watch the film in horror. The impression is of a campaign and a candidate who did not really know where it was going or trying to say.”

Well I'm not sure what the documentary can do along these lines that the campaign itself hasn't already done but who knows......

[pcottraux]

ROFLOL, just watched that trailer.

I'd forgotten all about that Timber Company thing. "I own a timber company? That's news to me. Need any wood?"

Hillary rolls her eyes, and you see the Kerry people scrambling around on cell phones. "Timber company? What the @#%& was he talking about?"

Bwah Ha Haa!!!

[Deetes]

Oh that is going to be funny....

[LucyT]

Is it safe to watch, or will I be disgusted?

[scott7278]

There was a website that had more clips, but I couldn't find it on Google. It went into more detail about the pony thing, and it shows that blonde punk throwing a temper tantrum because they couldn't deliver.

At the end, he goes on a rant about the staffer, looking into the camera and talking about how he confronted the guy about it, saying "You suck...you're going to be mediocre the rest of your life." All because he didn't get him his precious pony.

As I was watching it, I was like, "This guy never left high school." Then I was thinking, "He called the other guy mediocre? Wonder what he's doing now?"

LOL.

[scott7278]

The first trailer is safe to watch...you know what they're saying but it's bleeped out. The film clip is unedited, and the guy throws around bad language like it's going out of style.

[pcottraux]

Those Dems are real pottymouths.

[scott7278]

Hold on to that lucky buckeye!

[pcottraux]

"Hold on to that lucky buckeye!"

Apparently, it wasn't lucky enough.

[Deetes]

LOL

That was a sign !!!

[Prime Choice]

Ah...fond memories indeed...
