Andrea Mitchell should resign immediately.
This moonbat is an embarassment to journalism.
you know obama got his nuances kicked hard,
or the leftists would not saying mccain cheated.
McCain’s a republican. They cheat. That’s all they do. Look at 2000 and 2004. No Way Bush could’ve won without cheating. It’s systemic! Duh!!!
Did anyone else have to look up the word “ignominy?”
As if Maverick would have to steal those questions. They were pretty straight forward and easy if you have core values. Black Whiteguilt Oblack is a bit short in that department.
Pray for W and Our Troops
McCain should just say “If you think I cheated, why don’t we have a rematch?”
And then watch Obama run for cover!

I Honestly Can’t Believe I’m Reading This
Regardless of what any one American’s politics or personal election preference might be, is it lost on people what they are reading if they click into Andrew Sullivan’s blog from Memeorandum?
Here is how Swindle describes it to Byron York:
“I vaguely recall that story being told, among other stories.”
Convinced? The answer as to why McCain never mentioned this in his first account or for a quarter century since and didn’t even recall it when asked to recount memories of three separate Christmases in captivity is dismissed with the usual gambit:
What is quite well known beyond ANY shadow of a doubt is that Senator John McCain spent five years in captivity for serving his country during which time he was brutalized to such a severe extent that he still carries the scars and handicap from that captivity.
What is also well known beyond any shadow of a doubt is that Senator Barack Obama had some form of long-standing tie to an unrepentant domestic terrorist - but we can’t know the extent of those ties because the Richard J. Daley Library of the University of Illinois at Chicago is blocking access to the records of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge.
And all Andrew Sullivan and a significant number of new media members on the Left care about is whether or not a North Vietnamese prison guard drew a cross in the sand with a stick some 40 years ago?
Sorry, but are you people f~&/ing insane? Do you not have any sense of what country you actually live in today? Do you really not understand why America has rejected your presidential candidates at the ballot box in so many elections over these last forty or so years?
If this is how you intend to present yourself and your arguments from now until Fall, I’d suggest you prepare to lose once again. Turning any good American’s stomach with your pathetic, distasteful and ultimately bat crap crazy tactics just ain’t no way to win friends, or secure votes.
And if the Atlantic wants to preserve anything like a reputation, it might do well to consider giving Andrew Sullivan a break. Whatever bend he has gone around does not appear to be the kind from which one very easily makes it back.
I read an article today (sorry, can’t remember where) by someone at Saddleback and he said both Obama and McCain were given the first two questions in advance because Warren wanted them to have a comfort level.
And he told them the subjects he would probably quiz them on.
Perhaps Obama’s arrogance did him in. If he knew the questions, perhaps he thought them to death to appear intelligent? Can it be possible he believes his own party propaganda that Republicans are stupid?
