Election Update
The best line I’ve heard is:
“This election is about a candidate who should have been elected eight years ago and one that should be elected eight years from now.”
Chip shots from the GOP Convention (days 1-3):
1) Rudy Guilliani is a fool. Talk about an awful speech. Rudy: go back to the private sector and run your consulting firm / investment bank and make millions. But please, don’t even think about going into national politics again. You come across as a dope.
2) Mitt: You are toast too. For such a smart guy, what’s with your speech full of bitter one liners? Your attacks on Obama, make you seem catty and fake. You gave it your best shot this year as a candidate. McCain smartly decided you were too much of a risk as a VP candidate. Now move back to Bain Capital and ring the cash register (again).
3) Palin: You surprised everyone last night. Up until your speech, the convention had been a complete waste of time (and painful to watch). Given the first impression you made on America last night, I think McCain’s gamble might work. You have solidified support from the conservative right, and you might just mobilize woman to get up and vote for the GOP ticket. All that “hockey mom” talk might just get the suburban mom’s to warm up to you.
Let’s face it, the only chance the GOP ticket has is to keep emphasizing McCain’s war hero status and his POW experience.
