Think John McCain did pretty well in last evening's Saddleback Civil Forum on Presidency hosted by the Rev. Rick Warren? You're not the only one. The Obama campaign thinks he did well too -- so good, in fact, that they think he might have cheated. And on this morning's "Meet the Press," Andrea Mitchell wasted no time floating the Obama campaign's "private" concern:
(Excerpt) Read more at newsbusters.org ...
So Obama had a “more nuanced approach,” did he?
ROFLOL!!
Wasn’t that Kerry’s excuse in 2004?
Give them some time, though. Till, say, midmorning tomorrow. The brains behind Hussein will get together by phone conference and hash out the media's position on the debate. Then it'll be passed to DNC headquarters and faxed to the punditry. It'll be all over the MSM by tomorrow afternoon, whatever it is. Some combination of "McCain was given the questions in advance" and "Obama's answers were good, they were just too brainy for the average shmoe to understand" and "this was not the best kind of forum for Obama" and "the moderator was a Republican."
Pathetic.
...and did Andrea cheat when she backtracked on her claim that Ms. Plame’s identity and employer was a well known secret amongst the Washington news-elite?
ROFLOL!!
Wasn’t that Kerry’s excuse in 2004?
Yeah, they're both way to good for America.
Andrea Mitchell and David Gregory playing in the gutter, one more time.
This is just more of the same cheap shots that NBC/msnbc has become known for.
disinformation and outright lies
Democrats only believe in democracy when they win the election.
Her dishonesty and bias and evilness are on display for all to see. She has no credibility
I cannot wait to see the reaction of all these msm twits after their hero gets his butt handed to him in November.
Typical DNC TV.
Had Obama done well, and people said things like this about him, those very same pundits would be calling them racist....
Since Andrea Mitchell is 20 years younger than her husband Alan Greenspan, I wonder if she ever cheats on him with a younger man?
“So Obama had a “more nuanced approach,” did he?... Wasn’t that Kerry’s excuse in 2004?”
Obama/Kerry ‘08! A match made in purgatory!
Even if he had gotten the questions, he wouldn’t have remembered his programmed answers due to his ultra-advanced years.
do I really need to add the sarc/ tag? I know we have a number of totally humorless ***** on here.
That's why they so readily use the word 'nuance'. One uses 'nuance' when one doesn't have a cogent answer. Bill Clinton tried to nuance 'is' and it sounded astoundingly lame. Kind of like Barak at Saddleback.
Isn’t it interesting that they always imply that our guys are stupid but we somehow manage to always outsmart them.
YUK!
I find Andrea Mitchell to be a typical racist liberal. I'm surprised she didn't use that racist code phrase "so well spoken" with regard to Obama.
And here's their next dilemna..if they want to use the race card, they will have to admit that it's Democrats who are racist...after all...Republicans wouldn't vote for Obama anyway...what excuse do the Dems have?
I watched Gregory today and what is so funny is that he is so clumsy and amateur like in his delivery. He acts like a 6th grader in his first debate...I keep waiting for him to say,” Hey..wait, uh, Do-Over!!!”
What would totally crush this guy though is never a critique on his ability...but to let him know he just is not that good looking..also true. ha.
Name the Obama campaign people who supposedly leveled that charge, Andrea, and cite their evidence.

One person on last nights thread said he was going around to the Obama forums spreading that word to make them (Rats) more paranoid. He thought it was great fun but was upbraided for just this reason. McCain did well on his own because he has been doing townhalls on his own for a year or more and has been asked and answered these questions or ones like these numerous times.
Since he’s the Obamessiah, how come he didn’t know what the questions were before they were asked?
Mac’s attack at Saddleback
Proved the hack that is Barack
“Uhs” n’ “ers” in contortion, he didn’t answer on abortion.
“Above my pay grade,” was his verse,
As O-BUM-ah went from bad to worse!
Nuances are for people with no convictions - or that are tried to hide their true convictions.
I wonder if Andrea mitchell may be trying to get back in good standing after she remarked on a July 21, ‘08 interview with Chris Mathews that Obama gave fake interviews in the Middle East.
Most of these liberal media hounds are all enamored with themselves.
Fact is, David Gregory is no Tim Russert.
Then again, Tim Russert was no Tim Russert.
Excerpted only to increase hits on that site?
It's called experience and like him or not, McCain has it.
Obama on the other hand is a hyped-up neophyte who is constantly shifting positions for tactical advantage. Does he support off shore drilling? It depends. Yes. No. Kind of. Which way are the political winds blowing? If you don't know the answers in advance, you'll put on the kind of meandering performance Obama put on last night.
This is typical of NBC/MSNBC — otherwise known as the official campaign headquarters for the ONE.
Andrea is unbelievable, how she will prostitute herself like this for Obama.
You know McCain’s answer was so good and direct on the question of Evil. He did not hesitate in answering the question. I knew at that moment this allegation was going to surface with Moonbats/MSDNC
And, maybe Andrea sould sit on the edge of the bathtub with her husband Alan Greenspan;
As he tries to tell the nation, Bernanke, and others how to manage the Fed out of the problems that Greenspan created;
And tell old Alan to STFU, and let the new team take over!
Well when you can’t answer a simple question like when does and en utero child obtain its rights as a citizen of the U.S. and say that the answer is above your paygrade... I guess that is just way too nuanced for average Americans... What exactly did that mean anyway... Was he saying that God determines when a life is a life>? and if he is saying this then God Determined life was life when he awarded that miracle of life to the mother... and that was at conception... So what exactly is Obama’s position?> If he doesn’t want his daughters punished with children or children to become burdens on society or other such liberal nonsense then he is in favor of abortion at any stage... Heck why not allow the women the choice to abort a week, a month, a year ....after birth? Whats the Difference?
LOL!!!
Pee Wee Herman could do better than Gregory !
The CHEATER is the one that cheating has occured. Where is Obama’s real BIRTH CERTIFICATE, that will prove he could be the President of the United States. Not the one that he put out that is possibly very FAKE.
The Purpose Driven Questions in Advance.
OUCH!
Do you remember back in 2000 when Gore and Tipper accompanied Andrea Mitchell and her husband, then Chairman of the Federal Reserve, Alan Greenspan to a Broadway show? I think that speaks for itself.
"No, not the one. Not the One."
What these supposedly well informed DBM types don’t understand is that McCain has been giving essentially he same answer to similar questions for the entire campaign, including the one about going to the “gates of Hell.” He got the stimulus and he automatically responded with the same kind of answer he’
s been giving tgo the same kind of questions.
My son called me from New York last night and told me that the liberal powers to be would not let McCain beating Obama stand.
He stated the Red Herring talking points if Obama did not do well would be:
McCain cheated because Obama went first so he had the chance to listen.
McCain was secretly wearing an earphone and was taking responses from someone like Karl Rove.
McCain was given the questions before hand by Rick Warren.
The talking points were to be driven home with friendly news and media organizations such as NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC and the major newspapers repeating the cheating theme over and over.
This to cover for Obamas incompetence of not being able to handle confrontations without a teleprompter or prescript ed questions.
I am not at liberty to divulge much more about my sons affiliation with the Hillary side of the Democrat party but as soon as McCain finished he was on the phone telling me what to look out for in todays snews.
He also mentioned that he and many of his friends planned to sit out the election if Obama remained on the ticket.
