Well, how about that first sentence? Or the second? I couldn’t read any further than those idiocies.

Nothing like some privileged ivory tower jerk who never did anything useful in his life calling a huge populist movement a narrow corner.

Nobody will ever accuse Sarah Palin of painting with a microscopic brush, but in the large she’s right. In every case you have to look at what Obama’s other hand is doing in order to evaluate the purportedly benign gestures he makes.

No one will nominate her. But on everything else Bob Shrum is wrong - as usual.

Coming from a political (hack) consultant with a track record of zero for ???? I wouldn’t put too much credence in Old Bob’s words, observations, analysis or delusions. He’s not exactly the best prognosticator of what the public is thinking.

Palin’s suggestion that the President is so out of his depth, so stupid—at least that’s what the cheering crowd heard—that he can’t function without a teleprompter.

That's because he can’t function without a teleprompter

"Where to start"?
This is a good place:

"....appealing to an old prejudice against intellectuals...."

Sure, Bob, us conservatives know deep-down that we're a bunch of ill-educated, knuckle-dragging Neandrathals - and we're surely jealous of the brain power of you Lib-tards.

Ironic that Shrum calls the GOP the party of lies when it has been evident, and I mean publically evident, that it is the DEMS that have been the party of lies with Jack Squat leading the way.....

How about an blind hypocrite Idiot ping, please?

How can we “become” the Party of Lies? I thought we always were the party of lies, along with the party of starving the eldery and children.

Sarah Palin sets the tone for a narrow, spiteful corner of American politics.

.....Shrum says, then proceeds to write a narrow, spiteful American political screed.

Pity poor Bob Shrum. His party has been able to load the rolls with bogus voters, but they can’t figure out how to get them to pay taxes.

Why does anyone ever pay attention to Bob (0 for 5) Schrum?

I strongly favor her nomination

You said the same thing about Edmund Muskie, George McGovern, Ted Kennedy, Dick Gephardt, Michael Dukakis, Bob Kerrey, Al Gore, and John Kerry.

He could have saved a lot of time and just wrote “I am a witless pinhead.”

Does he mean the party of “I witnessed church burnings”? The party of “There were bullets flying overhead as we raced across the tarmac”?? The party of “... want to starve children and kill old people” ?? The party of “Mark my words, in six months, this man (0bama) will be tested” ?? The party of “No one who makes under $250,000 will see their taxes of any kind raised one dime” ?? The party of “The child is not mine” ?? The party of “I want you to listen to me ... I did not have sexual relations with that woman” ?? THAT PARTY OF LIES, BOB?

Really; this level of ignorance does stop one cold.

Will leave it with 'Proud to be Party of NO' - NO to tyranny! YES to America and Freedom!

As any adult parent will tell you, “NO” is the most frequent word said to small,petulant children.

Yeah, Bob. Because “Stop lying about my record!” worked oh, so well for Bob Dole when he tried it.

Sure, I carefully paid attention to Shrum on the Accela Express from Boston to DC.

I listened to the fool sucking up to Blow-Job Clinton about how the RAT candidate for Governor was a mental midget. Then I listened to him dictate the eulogy that that Iowan Moran, Harkin, delivered at the Wellstone Funerally.

Then I called the Mass Republican Party to tell them the Rat tactics for the forthcoming debate and I called the National Republican Party to tell them about the Eulogy that Harkin was going to deliver.

Then I posted the account on FR and was roundly dismissed.

Bob (0 for 5) Schrum?

0 for 5?

You're being generous - let's look at the bio, shall we?

Anybody see a pattern there?

In all fairness, he has had some winners at a lower level - Senate, etc.
