Cokie Roberts Blames Michael Moore
newsmax.com ^ | 12/19/04 | unknown

Posted on 12/19/2004 9:47:41 AM PST by beyond the sea

Former "This Week" host and National Public Radio veteran Cokie Roberts blamed conspiracy filmmaker Michael Moore on Sunday for causing Sen. John Kerry to lose the presidential election.

"I think Michael Moore actually had a very major impact - a negative impact - on the Democratic Party," Roberts told NBC's "Chris Matthews Show."

"I think he exemplified all of the things that people hate about Democrats. And the fact that he was - it was a hate-America-first campaign and that hurts the Democrats every time."

Adding insult to injury, Roberts also contended that Moore's "physical appearance did not help."

Moore's film sold a heck of a lot of tickets.

And a lot seemed to have liked it. That shows that Moore didn't cause the loss....Kerry himself did.

There's something wrong with Mr. Moore's appearance? I hadn't noticed.....

If Kerry would have told Moore to shut up, Moore would have done so even though it would have hurt his fat wallet.

Don't forget that every news story.. day in and day out was colored and slanted by the lefty PRESS. Don't forget that when you claim that Bush squeaked by over a crappy candidate. The media cards were stacked every day and week against Bush. It was RELENTLESS. Don't forget that effect!!!!!

Bush would have most likely won around 56% of the vote if it weren't for the sick-*ss/lefty/socialist/old media!

Don't forget that.

One more time. Your assessment is not correct.

Don't forget that every news story..... day in and day out was colored and slanted by the lefty PRESS against Bush. Don't forget that when you claim that Bush squeaked by over a crappy candidate and that he is not popular. The media cards were stacked every day and every week against Bush. It was RELENTLESS. Don't forget that effect!!!!!

Bush would have buried Kerry, would have won around 56% of the vote if it weren't for the demented/hateful/overwhelming/ destructive/lefty/socialist/old media! Don't forget that. You have forgotten that.

If turnout is over 120 million John Kerry will win with well over 300 electoral votes.

Where have you been?

The final presidential vote turnout was over 123,000,000.

Do most Democrats realize they see Michael Moore -- when they look themselves in the mirror?

I'm not so sure Moore would have shut up. He has a huge ego.

Now that he's snuggling up to Hillary and her 2008 run, he better back off her if she says to shut up or he may end up in a Park somewhere.

Moore's "physical appearance did not help."

If a conservative talk show host said this, there would be a huge campaign against him/her.

Yes ........ discrimination against the large, unclean, and sweaty.

;-) Imagine if a thin, healthy beauty like Laura Ingraham, Michelle Malkin, or Heather Nauert said that. Yoi.

Then were you being sarcastic with this in post 176?

"If turnout is over 120 million John Kerry will win with well over 300 electoral votes." If so, I'm glad.
