The New Yorker goes Eastwood:
 

Back to you, Dirty Harry:
 

Full Clint Eastwood speech 2012 Republican National Convention RNC Mitt Romney

As I mentioned last night, some liberals are pretty angry that Obama wasn't allowed to drag TOTUS onto the debate stage on Wednesday:
 

This is what Republicans are up against.

UPDATE - Rasmussen's Saturday tracker shows a four-point bounce for Romney, who now leads 49-47 among likely voters nationwide.  The better news?  Only 2/3 of that rolling poll was taken after the debate, so he has room to expand his advantage.

Yes, next debate let’s strip search Romney and ban handkerchiefs but then have a teleprompter for Obama.

Sort of an affirmative action deal...

[Jim from C-Town]

I think we have had enough of Affirmative Action. We are living through the affirmative action Presidency!

See this compilation of Eastwood's GOP speech and the Superbowl ad...

[Jeff Chandler]

It was the altitude. Obama’s re-election hopes vanished into . . .

thin air.

[the anti-liberal]

But really, how do these folks think a teleprompter is going to help 0 in a *debate*?

[ConorMacNessa]

We have indeed had enough of Affirmative Action. In my opinion, it stands in direct violation of the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. There may have been a time when it was fair to give a boost to minorities to redress past injustices, but in my view that practice, however well intentioned, was unconstitutional ab initio. As implemented by the Courts over the past half-century AA has resulted in widespread discrimination against Caucasians. If you don't believe me, try applying for a Federal job. If you're a White Male, you're facing an uphill battle. It's time to end this mockery and, as the lefties are fond of saying, "level the playing field."

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

[Conservative4Ever]

That is exactly my first thought too. Unless he has the questions before hand to set up the answers. Things I would pay to see. Romney asks him a zinger question and Obama fumbles with the totus. Ahhh the visual. :-)

[Bender2]

Gadzooks! Clint was right... you are not there at all!

[ETL]

Obama, the empty chair, empty suit president.

Missing Schoolboy Alert!

[caprock]

In support of Clint, go see “Trouble with the Curve.” GREAT MOVIE!!!

[the anti-liberal]

I say let them have the teleprompter! (snort)

[HereInTheHeartland]

The New Yorker? Amazing.

[annieokie]

Wanted to see “Last Ounce of Courage”, but it was no longer showing even though they still had it listed on their website. So we opted to see “Trouble With the Curve” and was not disappointed.
