"Clint Eastwood made him an empty chair."

No. The undocumented Moslem Kenyan
IS an empty suit in an empty chair.

Believe me, it could have been worse.

” I’m as good once as I ever was...”

You lie, I’ll swear to it : )

I love Clint, but personally I found it a little sad when he seemed to be stumbling and forgetting what he was saying, at least early on. But if the RATS think they are going to get anywhere attacking Clint they are crazy. They would do better just to say they still love the guy and drop it.

There are times in a campaign where everything comes into focus and looking back, you can see it was over at that point.

Reagan - “There you go again”.

Bush - the shoulder shrug when Algore crept up on him in a threatening manner and when Algore yammered about him being part owner in a lumber company - “Need some wood?”.

I think Clint and the empty chair totally ended O’s re-election bid. The mockery has gone viral and added Eastwooding as an internet pastime. Unless Mitt completely stumbles in a debate, this race is now his to win.

I noted a couple of Facebook “friends” who I rarely hear from and had no clue about their politics go nuts this morning how “sad” and “pathetic” Eastwood was and they were angry how “right wingers” loved it.

Basically, they’re apoplectic that someone dare mock Prince Precious.

Rush said today that there was a teleprompter on stage...for the empty chair! Bwahahahaha! He said you can see it in stills.

If so, that is brilliant!

OMG, I love it! I think, since Obama won’t do pressers, that someone should do one with an empty chair. Then just play his own words back in answer. It would be devastating.

[Cruising For Freedom]

Took me a while to get why it was a big deal to leftists, too.

Gods can be worshipped. Gods can be cursed. But no god gets laughed at.

This guy is the most thin-skinned President ever. He cannot stand for any criticism. He is so unPresidential when he responds to a critic. He is actually adding press time to the Eastwood speech when he responds to it.

[KingKongCobra]

OK. Best Pic Ever.

I have to confess, that I too was a little down and upset last night over Mr. Eastwood. But now I realize the purpose in bringing him on stage and letting him be Clint. He stuck a knife down the black messiah’s back...brilliant move. No really. I was so nervous for Romney last night because I knew the stakes were extremely high a make or break night for Mitt.I wanted no distractions from his message, but I'm beginning to see the sense behind Mr. Eastwood's invite. I hope the youtube gains in the multiple millions of viewers before the election! BTW,my husband who was seeing it in another room laughed his head off, he loved it!

[greeneyes]

I think it would have been great if an empty suit had been sitting draped on the chair too!LOL

[Red in Blue PA]

LOL! Fantastic!

[AD from SpringBay]

No one in the media gets huffy when Doonsbury does his empty chair bit about republicans. Just more double-standard.

[notpoliticallycorewrecked]

Needs a sippy cup.

[MomwithHope]

For when he gets all wee wee'd up.

[Red Steel]

LoL.

Dems are ...
