He does have a peanut head
Jimmy Carter’s second term!!!
He’s not Carter; he’s Dukakis.
>>>A stronger candidate would’ve called their bluff and confined the Clintons to one night on which both Hillary and Bill spoke (he would have outshone her). He would have blocked a roll call by allowing a voice vote to nominate by acclimation. He would have stood up to the Clintons and recaptured his own convention. <<<
si.
Obama: more arrogant than Bill Clinton, more naive than Jimmy Carter, and more liberal than LBJ.
For all his warts, Morris is usually an interesting read, though with his experience he ought to be even better than that.
Something I don’t understand about the conventions: why do the Democrats usually go first? You would think they’d learn not to give us the “last word.”
The GOP convention is going to dispel all the pixie dust their convention spreads around.
Unfortunately, the Carter era will be looked upon fondly as a Golden Age of prosperity when compared to the Obamanation that could be upon us soon.
Reminds me of the candid talk accidentally caught on the mics when Bambi was talking to Gordon Brown. Obama said something to the effect, “We don’t have to know everything - that’s what advisors are for. We just have to make sound judgments.”A wannabe, actually explaining this to a leader.
Can you imagine McCain saying such a thing? McCain makes his own decisions, while Carter or Obama freeze and wait for advice.
Having Morris critique Obama’s campaign strategy is like having the French critique Italian military strategy.
And yet, Hillary's supporters are *right now* engaged in a massive email campaign to disrupt Obama's nomination.
Fienstein has already dropped out rather than be part of the coup, but Democratic Party delegates and unelected super-delegates are going to be voting for Hillary at their Convention.
It’s even worse than that. Obama is worse than Carter—hard as it is to believe that possible.
The metrosexual man can make a good latte or lawyer but little else. Keep them as far from the levers of power as you can.
I'm no fan of Morris, but that is a good phrase...
“Ah, a nice funky bouquet, an interesting cheesy undertone,
somewhat musky—my dear, I’m guessing you haven’t washed
these feet since `71? That was a great year! Sniiiiiiif!”

The Dems are in danger of achieving Carterization and the convention hasn't even started yet. Obama has already been imitating "the malaise" speech. Like Carter he is depressed and ashamed of his country and tries to drag everyone else down into his bummer and downer. But Americans don't like being depressed about and ashamed of their country. They especially do not like condescending people trying to rub their noses in it.
He doesn't seem to grasp this as a weakness in his campaign and will keep doing it. He has a neurotic need to remind white Americans of the imperfections and moral failings of their country. There is an in-your-face quality to this kind of condescending liberalism. Liberal white guilt is finite, not infinite. And McCain is gaining momentum.
It's what Begala said about the Democrats not being able to win with eggheads. There just aren't enough eggheads. Arugula, inflating tires, and herbal wheatgrass colonics won't win this election.
Carter was a moron, but he had been a governor and had served his country.
Obama is a darker shade of Edwards. Both are populists w/o a resume. Both subsist on the cult of the masses to propel them forward. Both are smooth talking bubble heads.
The only difference I can see is Edwards donks the help.
“while on foreign and defense questions, he betrayed a lack of strength and resolve in standing up to Russia’s invasion of Georgia.”
I’m trying to remember what strength and resolve our president showed....
Dick Morris, I think you’re INSULTING JIMMY CARTER - he’d be worse then Jimmy. :-)
