ATTENTION ALL REPORTERS!!! Start checking your Blackberries! William Rivers Pitt has another news scoop! You should find out about it in 24 business hours. And the amazing scoop can be described in just one word according to Pitt: "Eagleton." Ironically, Pitt might finally get a scoop right but in the wrong way. The Pied Piper thinks this will apply to Sarah Palin being removed from the ticket but I happen to know that it will be Joe Biden who will be facing the same situation due to a certain piece of material out there that will surface soon...maybe in 24 business hours. This material would be like watching Tom Eagleton actually undergoing electro-shock therapy. However, I really don't want Biden to be removed from the Obama ticket. It is much better for him to remain where he is and pull Obama and all the other Democrats down, unable to recover from the loss for at least another generation. So it turns out that Pitt is right but in 180 degrees the wrong way as you can see in his DUmmie THREAD titled, "So...the top post on Talking Points Memo is 1 word long...one name, really...and a question mark..." Therefore let us join Pitt in mid "scoop" in Bolshevik Red while the commentary of your humble correspondent, noting that the "Eagleton" word will soon be resurrected but not in the direction that Pitt hopes, is in the [brackets]:
So...the top post on Talking Points Memo is 1 word long...one name, really...and a question mark...
[The Pied Piper Pitt memo is 1 word long: "Drunk."]
"Eagleton?"
["Biden?"]
For the edification of any who don't yet know about one of the more remarkably grotesque political debacles in modern American history.
[As big a debacle as the scoop about Karl Rove being indicted on May 12, 2006? While we wait 24 business hours for Pitt's scoop to materialize, let us join the DUmmies in progress...]
I don't get it...is it the replacement thing or the mental health thing? Or is there some other significance to the name.
[There was a lot of significance to the name of Jason Leopold, half of the famous investigative team of Leopold & Lib who broke the Karl Rove indictment scoop.]
The replacement thing. They are implying she will have to be replaced. They might have used "Miers?"
[Or "Biden?"]
Well, McGovern lost the election after Eagleton thing. I think they are implying this could cost McCain the election if he has to replace her.
[Note to Obama: Please don't replace Joe Biden after a certain piece of material is revealed. BTW, one other person other than Charles Henrickson is privy to the material. FReeper faq put on his Sherlock Holmes hat and figured it all out to the extent that he even knows the date and location of the material. Oh, I am also going to have to swear faq to an oath of omerta.]
Who would he choose for his encore?
[Hillary? But I don't want Obama to make a switch. I hope he stands 1000% behind Joe Biden.]
Eagleton, for those who don't remember, was tapped to be a VP running mate and then had to be un-tapped. It was very bad all the way around.
[Watching a video of Joe Biden in Beaver, PA, I am wondering if he tapped a keg there.]
How much you wanna bet that this has nothing to do with Biden, but rather is just a rehash of the “trooper” allegations against Palin?
When is the Biden stuff coming out and, do we want that? Everyone here knows Biden is a joke. The last thing we need is for Obama to replace plugs with Hillary.
Ummmmm...Biden pick is political payback for some Rat AG NOT prosecuting some relative of Biden’s?

ROFLMAO !!!!
Okay...I confess.
I don’t get it. What is Pitt going on about with Palin? A rehash of Troopergate or what?
I just hope it's not anything that would knock old Joe Hair-Plugs off the ticket, IMHO he's gonna be like a boat anchor chained around Obamassiah's neck as the campaign moves along and people in heartland America see and hear more of him. I don't know just where he ranks on the Senate liberal spectrum, but he has to be at, or very near to, the far left fringe.
Garde la Foi, mes amis! Nous nous sommes les sauveurs de la République! Maintenant et Toujours!
(Keep the Faith, my friends! We are the saviors of the Republic! Now and Forever!)
LonePalm, le Républicain du verre cassé (The Broken Glass Republican)
I caught him talking his BS to a Marine neighbor, and I nailed him to the
wall like a dead moth. The Liberals will do and say anything to stop this
selection, and I welcome their LIES AND DEADication.
Uh, DUmmies, for those of you either too young or too stoned to remember 1972, I do remember. And McGovern would have lost APART FROM the Eagleton snafu.
["Biden?"]
How about this. Biden's alchohol use is going to become an issue, and the Democrats know it, they will throw him under the bus, and who will be there to rescue the party. Who is the ONLY one that could possibly out thunder Palin. Hillary, of course.
Maybe it was the plan all along. Choose Biden, allowing the Republicans to show their hand, and then replace him with whom they know would REALLY help Obama win...
Ha! In before tomorrows ping! So there. ;)
Folks,
Hillary on that ticket would be very bad for McCain-Palin.
Time needs to pass, and it needs to pass without too huge a poll surge for McCain-Palin. Get to mid October before October surprises occur.
The Democrats WILL do anything not to lose. They would dump that whole ticket if the polls said they have no chance. It is best for us if the polls show no more than a 2-3% McCain lead in mid October.
Well, now we know what this was all about. Did Pitt really think Bristol’s pregnancy was a secret to McCain?
Liberals are so silly sometimes. Gov. Palin is demonstrating her values in this situation in a beautiful way. Can you say, “backfire”?
The left has this warped view of the Right (I should know, I was once a liberal myself). Oops! Pregnancy out of wedlock! Fire, brimstone, damnation on earth to you! Blah blah.. They seriously underestimate the understanding and compassion of Conservatives, while at the same time, seriously OVERestimating their own..
Dude, you’re getting very, very close to “Karl Rove has been indicted” territory with this Biden thing. Reveal it soon, or no matter what it is is gonna be a “That’s IT?” moment.
No doubt. Where’s the beef?
