Rangle: We need short-term solutions, not long-term ones. Screw our future, we need a stimulus now!

[khnyny]

Those are excellent points, I hope his campaign considers them.

That being said, imho, Romney hasn’t spent his life as a bs artist career politician. Romney has spent the majority of his time solving problems, and growing businesses. I also think he doesn’t have to say “ah, and um” so much because he’s clear in his thoughts and doesn’t need the time to make up nonsense that he thinks his listener wants to hear.

[txradioguy]

And his “base” will desert him 30 seconds after he accepts the nomination as the Republican candidate for POTUS.

He seems to be the only one who doesn’t know that.

[Sunnyflorida]

There aren’t that many indictments in So FL because the people that do the indicting are also on the take.

[maica]

Considering that outside of people on a military payroll, govt workers vote dem about as often as members of the media, he won’t lose a lot of votes by stateing that government agencies have not gone through the streamlining that many companies in the private sector have, and it is time that they do.

PS: Jill Zuckman on Reliable Sources just used “the president” when discussing Clinton.

Excellent suggestion Shrinker, communication is not important it's everything! That's why Rush is so successful, he communicates.

Problem Romney will have is that no matter what he says staccato or not it will be distorted by the DBM sooner or later.

[rodguy911]

Yeah, they are the slickest there are, no doubt.

[Sunnyflorida]

MTP is hammering Hillary.

[maica]

Yes, I thought the same. Who the hell is Chris Wallace in the tank for?

#####

I think the Clintons have brought home a few “truths” to Wallace about his interviewing techniques.

[Bahbah]

PS: Jill Zuckman on Reliable Sources just used “the president” when discussing Clinton.

Got the memo, eh?

[The Pack Knight]

No, he's pretty quick at making up nonsense that he thinks his listener wants to hear.

Romney might be our best bet now, but come on, you can't actually be saying that he never panders to his audience.

[napscoordinator]

Thanks for letting me know. Prayers to her quick recovery

[snugs]

He is visiting his mother who is ill but I agree he could have recorded one before he left maybe he did not want to be held up recording and wanted to get straight home.

[rodguy911]

Great catch snugs, the msm has already figured out that Rush alone can kill off the huckster. Just wait until he goes into full mode on McCain! It won't be pretty, but will be the truth and the McCain candidacy will be over.

All Rush has to do is replay and relive all the times McCain has screwed Conservatives and the Republican Party and he will be toast.

[The Pack Knight]

Stephanopoulos: Congressman Rangle, you’re black, so maybe you can tell me why black people don’t just shut up and vote for Hillary.

[snugs]

He has obviously served their purpose and they can now discard him, the same will happen with McCain later on and to the eventually Republican nominee.

[rodguy911]

No surprise there, CNN is not called the Clinton News Net for nothing.

[SW6906]

Thanks once again for your Media Nuggets - I look forward to them every Sunday!!! ;o)

[9YearLurker]

You’ve got that right, snugs!

[rodguy911]

Brilliant post TX!

Along with anita documenting the demise of the DBM week after week we can accurately predict the future. MSM down, New Media up. It happens before our very eyes week after week.
