H/t FReeper hotshu.
Billed as a roundtable, it played more like a group therapy session for distraught Dems on the verge. Obama's polls dropping. An inchoate sense this might all be slipping away. Chris Matthews and his guests for the show-ending "Politics Fix" on this evening's Hardball were united in bemoaning Barack's plight. The host himself was the ultimate downer, analogizing Obama's campaign to that of . . . Michael Dukakis.
Matthews fellow sufferers were Jeff Johnson, host of The Truth on BET, and Joan Walsh of Salon.com.

Excerpts from the sigh-in:
My goodness, Is there something on the mural that’s
making Hill look severely bock toothed?
Oops
buck toothed
My take is that HRC getting the nomination and then offering the VP slot to Obambi would really tick off many blacks. Their reasoning (as I see it) would be that she stole the nomination from him and put him back on the plantation as VP. IOW, the ultimate of insults.
Who knows what will happen. It guarantees to be entertaining.
oh, I miss her so much. The Clinton Administration just wasn’t as much fun after she left.
... brilliant VP choice
The way it’s going, McCain could end up winning all 57 states.
The leg tingle is gone.
The tingle turns into a tinkle.
Did Chwissy have a teardrop running down his leg?
He was able to present a relatively benign persona as the front runner with a seemingly comfortable lead. Forced to fight his way back to the front, it will strip him of his benevolent facade...now we're gonna see the real BO.
Schaedenfreude BUMP!
Awww.....poor wittle Chrissy is so sad.
Priceless!
I just love the smell of Napalm in the Morning!! Smells alot like burning Ratflesh.
If you want $10/gal, Vote No Oilbama.
Pray for W and Our Troops
I suspect Chrissie is sad about other things, too. MSNBC announced they are giving Air Amerika commie lesbo Rachel Maddow her own show. Apparently that kid whose Daddy was an important RAT judge got the axe. Things are not good at RATTV.
Hey Chris; no tingle down your leg today?
Dukakis without the cleaning solvent thirsty wife.
Matthew needs some Viagra.
With Her as VP buy Orders are in for Cucumbers Long!!!
I don’t see any other way out for him, either. He’s got to put the Hildabeast on the ticket and figure it out later.
She is the only Rat who can fundamentally change the numbers for him.
I always thought that Operation Chaos, by making the gap between the Beast and Obambi even smaller, could lead to this.
Hmm.
Obama: Dukakis without the tank.
Dukakis.....
That’s a funny name too!
