New Rule: Republicans need to stop saying Barack Obama is an elitist, or looks down on rural people, and just admit you don't like him because of something he can't help, something that's a result of the way he was born. Admit it, you're not voting for him because he's smarter than you.
--
Barack Obama can't help it if he's a magna cum laude Harvard grad and you're a Wal-Mart shopper who resurfaces driveways with your brother-in-law. Americans are so narcissistic that our candidates have to be just like us.

Yeah, a candidate that doesn't even know what Memorial Day is smarter than us.
If a Republican had made all the gaffes Barry has made, he would be portrayed as the biggest dunce in the world.

Yeah, he’s so smart we aren’t allowed to see his Columbia grades.

Bill Maher supports Obama. Only people as smart as Obama support him. Ergo, Maher is smart as Obama.
No argument there.

As odious as Maher is, this kind of garbage alienates most people and actually helps the GOP.
To: Ol' Sparky
Let them keep it up.
Pi$$ people off more.
This will be the biggest landslide in history, and all of them will be moving to France.

Imagine, just imagine, Maher’s reaction if a Republican had made the “Nitaly Lion” comment.

And, of course, the writers for the late night comedians, and the rest of the MSM, say there's nothing to poke fun at. Obama is truly Gaffe Central but none of them will touch any of his gaffes. They would lose the moonbat 50% of their audience. I guess they'd rather lose the Conservative 50% rather than the Loony Lefty 50%.
To: Ol' Sparky
Obam-uh can't form a complete sentence without a teleprompter. The only person he's smarter than is Maher.

Barack Obama can't help it if he's a magna cum laude Harvard grad and you're a Wal-Mart shopper who resurfaces driveways with your brother-in-law.Yes, he could help it - he could have chosen to do something useful and productive with his life. Instead, he went down a path that led to bizzare and narcissistic delusions of superiority.
I'm sure there are some Harvard Law School grads out there humbly working selflessly to make the world a better place - but that's only because I believe in a "bell curve" distribution of results in any given population.

When have the Dhims ever had a candidate that they didn't declare to be smarter than the rest of us. So smart in fact that the masses were just to dumb to see it.
John Kerry wasn't a boring, pretentious windbag - he was thoughtful. So thoughtful that it just appeared boring and pretentious to us normal stupid folk.
And Algore. He too was an intellectuals intellectual. So smart that he just couldn't connect.
I'm glad to see that they are warming up their excuses for losing. By the way, this rant needs to be printed on flier with the appropriate lines bolded and stuck all over cars at Walmarts everywhere.

Which MSM Feminist said that the intelligent women wouldn't be voting for McCain/Palin?
Keep it up MSM. Keep it up. More support for us from the vast middle voters. I love it!

Bill is a sad, strange little pundit, and he has my pity.
