WOLF TURNS 'LAMB'; CLINTON CAMPAIGN SAYS CNN HOST 'OUTSTANDING'

Drudge Report ^ | Nov. 16, 2007 | Matt Drudge

CNN debate moderator Wolf Blitzer did an 'outstanding' job in Vegas, a senior adviser to the Hillary campaign said early Friday. 'He was outstanding, and did not gang up like Russert did in Philadelphia. He avoided the personal attacks, remained professional and ran the best debate so far. Voters were the big winners last night.'

A rival campaign insider charges: 'Wolf turned into a lamb. No follow-up question on Clinton's huge flip on drivers licenses?'

[jdm]

Imagine if - after a 2000 Presidential debate - the Bush campaign said that a FOX News moderator was "outstanding." We would never hear the end of how the Republicans are trying to control the media.

But since this is Hillary/CNN/Democrats, I guess it's okay.

[shadeaud]

Wolf got the memo and it showed some great pictures of Marcy Park.

[mewzilla]

Well, it’s not known as Clinton News Network fer nuthin’.

[LIConFem]

Take a bow, Wolf.

You're obviously used to bending over.

[HD1200]

Wolf Blitzer is another Larry King. He is incapable of asking a coherent informed question.

[Blood of Tyrants]

In other words he threw a bunch of pre-screened questions to the Hildebeast.

[olezip]

It looked to me like a socialist controlled debate — a controlled moderator, controlled questions, placid answers, tedious, repetitious, predictable answers with little substance. The debate was as exciting as a typical NPR broadcast. ...something to anticipate when the Democrats take over the Administration.

[rollo tomasi]

How can anybody vote for this chick? Are they just rubbing their ignorance in our faces on purpose?

Mindbogglingly to say the least.

[SueRae]

Can’t say it any better than that.

I had to turn it off, there was no follow up to questions...or real questions for that matter. All fluff, no stuff.

[mmichaels1970]

Relax Wolf...your family is safe now.

[Dante3]

Wolf did an awful job. Was it adoration of Hillary, an offer by Hillary, or his FBI file along with incompetence?

[GoldenPup]

You can always tell a “Lamb” in Wolf’s clothing. He was “warned” beforehand, so he “chickened” out. Lots and lots of BS lying around too...now we know how farmers feel every day. Pitiful bunch of boobs. (Not the farmers...THE POLITICIANS).

[Hand em their arse]

As much as Biden is an ass and pretty much full of crap, he did have a couple funny moments... What I just kept thinking as the debate ran on was how much of a total goober Edwards sounded like... He just sounded like more and more of an idiot as the night ran on...

[mewzilla]

Dear Lou Dobbs: Nice network ya got there...

Blitzer will never get the stink of that off of him.

[nicko]

I’m a fairly opened minded guy...never been a straight party ticket puncher, and I listen to NPR on occasion...that being said, I have NEVER seen such a sham of what is supposedly an unbiased event...not that I give a good hoot in hell about most of the suits from either party this “race”, but CNN definitely jumped the shark with that fiasco last night...the spin, that started about 30 seconds after the conclusion was simply incredible- the fix is in, ladies and gentlemen...

[originalbuckeye]

Hillary’s campaign to Wolf:....DO NOT SCREW WITH HER AND YOU WILL LIVE TO SEE ANOTHER DAY.

Yep. Sounds like he got the message.

[dead]

Save your blue dress, Wolf!

[weegee]

“Show me the money...” - Cuba Gooding Jr. in “Jery Maguire”

“Show me the questions...” - Hillary Clinton 24 hours prior to every public forum.

[duckman]

Chick? Wrong farm animal. Insert correct name here:-———.

[bmwcyle]

Wolf there was a place by the cannon at the Park for you

[weegee]

How many times did Edwards’ blink? Some say it is the body language of a liar and his eyes flashed all night long in his debate with Dick Cheney.

[McGruff]

Nice doggie Wolf. Not like that neo-con Tim Russert.

[Badeye]

Did anyone actually think Wolf Blitzer would do anything other than obey the Clinton Campaign?

They don’t call it the Clinton News Network without almost two decades of reason, folks.

[Sig Sauer P220]

Wolf will live to see another day.

[The Great RJ]

Perhaps Clinton operatives threatened to take him for a ride to an obscure park or killed his dog. Whatever the threat, Wolf is squarely back on the Clinton plantation. Watch for Tim Russert to next start kowtowing to HRC.

Chris Wallace was just on FNC and said he had to turn the debate off after an hour ... he did not want to become any stupider.

[Miss Didi]

Chris Wallace on F&F was very critical of CNN...Wolf okay, okay, okay was like Joe Pesci in Lethal Weapon II. Says he only watched half because he was turning stupid. Wonders about the cheering section for Mrs. Clinton.

Fox was cheerleading for Mrs. Clinton this morning. Frank Luntz chatting with the Friends was GUSHING!!! His audience meters plunged during Obama’s “attack” and soared with her tired, lame “kitchen” line. He chose 5 audience members who just raved and raved over her performance, her direct answers to FIX everything. One poor fellow said that she wore pantsuits because she is the only one who “wears the pants.”

[ClarenceThomasfan]

Wolfie let me down. He doesn’t have any kajones like Russert. I guess Hillary cut them off and put them in her lockbox.

[Miss Didi]

Good job, Wolfie.

[ClarenceThomasfan]

LOL! Great graphic!

[syriacus]

Notes to self:

1. Wolf's beard makes him look like a probing and intelligent man.

2. Hillary's hair, makeup, and jacket co-ordinated well with the ghastly CNN background. The other candidates looked terrible.

3. 35 years ago, Shirley Chisholm was the first woman and the first African-American to run for Presidential nomination of the Democratic party. She got 151.95 votes from delegates to the 1972 convention.

>>What I just kept thinking as the debate ran on was how much of a total goober Edwards sounded like... He just sounded like more and more of an idiot as the night ran on...<<

I think Blitzer failed to do his job to ask for clarifications. For example, the following exchange is fogbound, and Blitzer did not follow up. Result is that Edwards sounded like a fool (although he might have had a follow-up explanation ready) and Hillary made a response that sounded like an effective counterpunch:

Edwards: She says she will bring change to Washington, while she continues to defend a system that does not work, that is broken, that is rigged and is corrupt.

Hillary: I don’t mind taking hits on my record on issues, but when somebody starts throwing mud, at least we can hope that it’s both accurate and not right out of the Republican playbook.

For him to be throwing this mud and making these charges I think really detracts from what we’re trying to do here tonight. We need to put forth a positive agenda for America.

[shankbear]

This woman bent old Wolf over and wore him out. I have never seen such a whipped vagina boy in my whole life. The Clintons control the media and it was on full display.

[uncitizen]

Oh look, they’ve found a nice color that suits Hillary. Pink. It softens her so.

[Enterprise]

From this day forth - he shalt be known as “Sheep” Blitzer. So let it be written, so let it be done.

[Miss Didi]

Gotta love Rush.

[McGruff]

Well at least CNN can’t be accused of planting questioners. They had them seated right in the front row!

[theDentist]

Wolf Blitzer!!!

"I am NOT afraid of Hillary! I'm NOT!!"

[khnyny]

Edwards: She says she will bring change to Washington, while she continues to defend a system that does not work, that is broken, that is rigged and is corrupt.

Well, Edwards is right. Does anyone have any doubt after watching last night's "debate"? IMHO, one of the best lines of the night, and I'm no Edward's fan.

[Sacajaweau]

Naw...Press Secretary!! (But they're lying)....

See page 8: What to tell Wolfe. (Note: Put the book away when you tell him so someone doesn't catch a photo. Also, don't do it in the bathroom. I heard that passing things under the stalls can be a problem.

Remember Our Motto: Deny, Deny, Deny!!

[uncitizen]

See no evil.

[GaryLee1990]

Wolf there was a place by the cannon at the Park for you

Nice pic of the cannon. You bet they'd find him the next day in a park.

[tumblindice]

Didja hear the cackle?
Wolfie lobbed her a softball about being a woman, then camera back to him & he said something like “Let’s hear now from the boys . . “ and it sounded like she’d laid an egg!

[McGruff]

I see "Meet the Press with Wolf Blitzer" in your future.

[USS Alaska]

Here is little wolfie in attack mode.

[Holicheese]

Please stop spreading that rumor that the questions were prescreened. That is untrue.
Hillary wrote the questions so there was no need to pre-screen.

Wolf, “Hillary, you are really the ultimate woman. Smart, beautiful, loving, caring, love animals and little children.”

Silky Pony, “Wolf, is there a question in there somewhere?”

Wolf, “Nope!”

" Wolf's beard makes him look like a probing and intelligent man."

Huh???......A homeless drunk coming off a week long bender, maybe.
