So Much for the Bradley Effect

From Craig Hickman's blog (I have no idea where he got it):

-So a canvasser goes to a woman's door in Washington, Pennsylvania. Knocks. Woman answers. Knocker asks who she's planning to vote for. She isn't sure, has to ask her husband who she's voting for. Husband is off in another room watching some game. Canvasser hears him yell back, "We're votin' for the n***er!"

Woman turns back to canvasser, and says brightly and matter of factly: "We're voting for the n***er."

In this economy, racism is officially a luxury.-

Somewhere, Tom Bradley is having a good laugh.



I see that FOX and the Republicans are calling Obama a "Socialist". Apparently, "liberal" as an epithet has lost its sting.

Which administration was it that effectively nationalized the banking system? Would that be the Republicans? Isn't that sort of government intervention the very definition of Socialism?


Joe Scarborough has memory issues, or he's a complete moron. Perhaps both. In a panel this morning on "Meet the Press" he talks about the possibility that the House, the Senate, and the President could all be from the same party for the first time since 1936, raising the specter of FDR.

Seems to forget that Bush had the House and Senate solidly in Republican hands for most of his two terms. Not to mention the Supreme Court. Another Joe, another putz.

Speaking of Joes, the most famous plumber in the world since Super Mario is whining that he was treated unfairly by the media. What, he thought he could get the camera time and not have the media ask questions? And why not blame the McCain camp for putting him out there, unvetted? If anybody is to blame, it's the McCain people for making him the centerpiece of their campaign, and leaving him out to face the media without media handlers, a la Palin.

Shame on the media for actually asking questions.
