Live Mic

September 3, 2008

This is just entirely too rich—Republicans Mike Murphy and Peggy Noonan were on MSNBC discussing the Palin VP pick with Chuck Todd, and inadvertantly got caught telling the truth about the nominee. This gem from Noonan:

The most qualified? No! I think they went for this—excuse me—political bullshit about narratives … Every time the Republicans do that, because that’s not where they live and it’s not what they’re good at, they blow it.

Talking Points Memo provides the full transcript. I want to make Peggy Noonan saying “It’s over” my ringtone.

    Eh, whatev. It’s not like Obama was (or is) the most qualified of the democrat contenders for the top spot on the ticket but that doesn’t seem to bother anyone.

    I just can’t wait until the VP debate. Everyone thinks Biden is going to clean Palin’s clock, but my prediction is that he comes off looking like a total wanker against her.

    P.S. I’m not voting McCain. But I’m not voting Obama either.

    It wouldn’t bother me about Palin either, except McCain has made such a big deal about how important experience and qualifications are. It’s just ridiculous that his campaign is now trying to spin Palin’s experience as mayor of a town as small as the one I live in, and governorship of a state smaller than 16 U.S. cities, as appropriate training for the most powerful job in the world.

    And we all know you’re voting for LaRouche as always, Cheese. :)

Have your say

Don’t be a jerk.
