New Car Smell? The Democratic Field Looks Like 'Cash for Clunkers'

"You know, I think — I think the American people, you know, they're gonna want — you know, that new car smell. You know, their own — they — they wanna drive somethin' off the lot that — that doesn't have as — as much mileage as me." — President Obama on ABC News' This Week.

Not exactly a great moment in political oratory.

But it's also hard to fathom who Obama could have had in mind when he uttered those words, since the Democratic contenders all are showing plenty of wear and tear.

Hillary has a smell but I don’t think it is a New Car.

[Cowboy Bob]

Hillary’s got a lot of mileage. Looks like she was rode hard and put up wet.

More cringe-worthy boolskat from pwned resident Stinkburger.

[duckworth]

Mileage? Does he mean mileage on Air Force One? What kind of mileage does he have? He’s never done a thing in his life except learn to read a teleprompter and parade around in a cocky manner.

Hilarious that they use this example, because some FReeper made the analogy about electing Obama -

they bought the junker because they liked the color
(to which I added)
and the sound system

Sorry, but if you want to get the engine going we’ll need a little cankle...

[Disambiguator]

That is funny, and disturbing on multiple levels.

[VerySadAmerican]

I think that was another shot at Hillary. He hates the Clintons and does not want her in the white house. I think it’s funny. The Clintons know nothing about loyalty. And now they’re getting a dose of their own medicine. They met their match in Chicago. If Obama stops Hillary it’ll be the only thing he did for the good of the country.

Pity the poor rider! It must be worse than being a Pony Express rider being chased by Comanches.

I got a good whiff of the losers,parasites and 60's radical burnouts that were part of Occupy Wall Street.You know,the ones who Princess Liawatha proudly proclaimed looked to *her* for guidance and encouragement.

They didn't smell *anything* like a new car.

[RipSawyer]

Looks like it was a very nice car until someone put that load of trash on top of it.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

only thing he did for the good of the country

A rich irony indeed.

[griswold3]

GQ has Obama among the “least influential”
#2 on the list of 30.

[FlingWingFlyer]

The Hillary campaign needs to forget the bumper stickers and start giving out these.

[Uncle Miltie]

I couldn’t write better copy.

Thanks, 0bama!

OBAMA SMELLING THE STENCH OF HIS STUPIDITY, DECEIT AND LIES... AND HIS ANTI AMERICAN LAWLESS AGENDA... he belongs impeached and tried for treason

[Uncle Miltie]

A Fresh Start: Clinton / Bush 2016!

‘But it’s also hard to fathom who Obama could have had in mind when he uttered those words’

No it isn’t. Valerie Jarrett is already getting behind Elizabeth Warren. So her sock puppet is paving the way.
