Video: And now, an important message from Alvin Greene about Jim DeMint and the recession
Hotair ^ | 10/12/2010 | Allahpundit

Posted on 10/12/2010 8:04:55 PM PDT by WebFocus

Via I Own the World. The good news? “America’s candidate” has mastered the fine art of message discipline. The bad news? It’s rendered him incapable of normal human interaction. The mitigating news? That was never his strong suit in the first place.

Lawrence O’Donnell says near the end that he’d still support him over DeMint. That, not “Lean Forward,” should be MSNBC’s new slogan.




TOPICS: Culture/Society; Government; News/Current Events; Politics/Elections
KEYWORDS: alvingreene; jimdemint; leanforward; napl
THIS IS JUST PRICELESS. You can't make this stuff up!

LOL, watch the video (click above link)... that was painful but VERY FUNNY (without him realizing it).

I love this guy.

I REALLY look forward to the debates (if there will be any) and will definitely miss my favorite TV show just to watch it.

Wow! I am just floored at how dumb this Greene guy is (yes, I must be a racist because he is black). Could the Dims have brought forth a dumber candidate? I don’t think so. Biden looks like a genius compared to this dufus

Alvin Greene is the accidental candidate in a state Democrats have practically abandoned and never paid attention to.

He won the primary when most Democrats did not even bother voting (a lot of them voted on the basis of his NAME — which sounds like the great gospel singer ).

He’s a decent guy but really knows very little. That’s all I can say.

Lawrence O’Donnell probably had him on just to boost his almost non-existent ratings.

But that interview was PRICELESS. You just can’t make this stuff up even if you hired an actor to play the part.

He had me rolling on the floor...

Watching the video reminded me of this Eddie Murphy scene in the Movie Bowfinger where Eddie's character is being interviewed for a job.

Bowfinger: Do you have any experience in motion pictures?

Jiff Ramsey (Murphy): Uh, well, yeah, quite a bit, actually, I have quite a bit of experience. I’m an active, uh, renter at Blockbuster, and I, um, attend the filmed cinema, uh, as much as possible, weekly, bi-weekly, inter-week-... intermediately.

Bowfinger: Would you be willing to cut your hair?

Jiff Ramsey: [sighs] Oh, yes, but, uh, its usually better if someone else does it. I’ve had a few... accidents.

Saying Alvin Green is dumber than a sack of rocks underestimates the IQ of a rock.

I suppose he does best define “where we at right now in this country”.

I guess we also learned why he was called turtle.

I don’t get it..

He sounds like ever single other democrat candidate to me.

He is wildly inarticulate but beyond that, his message is pretty much the same. Make up a talking point, repeat it over and over and over, the press will never ask a pointed question, whats new?

"DeMint started the recession."

"There is a fracture. I need to fix it."

Except for the delivery, his answers were somewhat similar to what you would hear from a rank and file dem on a typical Sunday show. Just substitute “Bush” for “DeMint”.

Funny but frightening. Even Lawrence O’Donnell was laughing at him. He’s a caricature of a dim spouting talking points.

Greene will not beat DeMint in the manner that Justin Bieber would not beat Chuck Norris, if not more so.

It all depends on the cemetery vote.

Hmmm... Justin Bieber being beaten by Chuck Norris. Now that’s a pleasant thought.

ROFL!

Thanks Alvin, you made my boring day worth starting!!

The students in my local college’s robotics class can now start a project to design the Alvin Greene Robot.

Push the button and it will start by saying : “Jim DeMint started the recession!”

I CAN’T WAIT FOR THE DEBATES !!

Here's the thing...this guy is an empty suit, but except from the soaring rhetoric he's exactly like Obama. Repeat lies. Because he's democrat, people are going to believe him and vote for him. Because he's black people are going to believe him and vote for him. His talking points make no sense whatsoever if you think about them or know anything about politics. But if you don't know anything, which a vast number of voters don't, these same people are going to be nodding their heads and going "yeah..this guy knows what he's talking about".

That's what I'm saying! And he did manage to get a "blame Bush" in there too. A large percentage of voters are going to say "Yeah, stick it those Republicans Alvin...they ruined everything".
