A Super Ball bounce or a dead cat bounce?
It’s going to be a LONG RACE, to a brokered convention...
PATIENCE wins the race, not the media.
Go Fred Go Fred...
you the man!
FRed bump!
My fingers are crossed.
Is it me, or has FOX become Fred friendly in the past week and a half?
The media has their collective foot on Fred’s head, yet wonders when he will get going. Screw them! They are the enemy!
Gomer, that's not "flak." Those are 1000lb bombs bracketing your sorry, socialist ars.
Will Fox Ask Paul About The Newsletters In Tonight's Debate? (Bumped:CNN Reports)
*************************EXCERPT***************************
UPDATE & BUMP, 4:30 pm: CNN's covering this now. They've also got their copies of the newsletters, and are quoting freely. David Gergen is saying that they should be "totally ventilated", meaning that they should get the widest possible dissemination. Matt Welch looked pretty uncomfortable answering for the candidate. Paul's staff says they won't try to find the authors.
Paul then got interviewed by Wolf Blitzer, and Paul says it's coming up now "for political reasons". "Everybody knows ... I'm not a racist." He says that libertarianism doesn't mesh with racism. Now he says that he gets the most black votes in the race, presumably among Republicans. Wolf is allowing Paul to soliloquize here. "67% of blacks are in prison"? I think he's confusing statistics here.
Who wrote it? "I have no idea". He says a publisher has no idea what appears in their publications. "Why don't you believe me?" Wolf is acting pretty much like a potted plant here, as Paul monologues without taking much of a breath.
Ha! He did get Paul to state that he never read his own newsletters. Now he's calling it a "witch hunt". Excuse me? These are his newsletters! Wolf now is saying what a great guy Paul is. Not exactly hard-hitting interviewing here. He's not asking the key question here: how did these statements go on in his newsletters for 17 years without Paul noticing it, and how that kind of incompetence -- if he didn't know his own organization was regularly disgorging this despicable material -- reflects on his ability to run a nation.
Very disappointing. Let's hope Fox does a better job of making Paul answer those questions.
UPDATE II: Bryan at Hot Air is also left unimpressed with the softballs tossed by Blitzer at Paul:
Don’t know if he’ll bounce in the polls, but that Red Truck at fred08.com is filling up fast. :)
