Obama the Classless Whiner, Continued

Senator Obama today: "You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig."

Gee, any idea who he's talking about there, borrowing Palin's signature joke?

Obama and Biden seem to think they're running against Sarah Palin. Interesting.

They seem to be in full-blown panic mode, and unable to run successfully on their platform, they're desperately flailing about and hurling insults. They're just going to keep sinking lower if they keep it up.

Any bets as to whether Obama exercises the "Torricelli option" before the election and throws Biden under the bus with everyone else?

"I'm also taking bets on how long til Olberman self destructs. Any takers?"

I think it's possible we may be watching that happen now, Holley.

(It will be interesting to be able to look back a year from now and dissect how and when the election tipped in which direction!)

Best wishes,
Laura

Laura, did you think Obama's gaffe was with intent or just foot-in-mouth syndrome?

I personally suspect it was intended...Obama has shown bits of misogyny and petulance in the past and I think he's probably pretty angry this week at the way the campaigns have flipped...although it's possible the "pig" theme was on his mind and using the phrase was more of a Freudian slip (grin) than directly intended.

He is a pretty bad public speaker when off the teleprompter -- if you watch the entire clip it's filled with stumbles and "uhs"...

What do you think? I'd be curious to know how other read it.

Best wishes,
Laura

And people used to complain about Bush's ability to speak!

At first I was willing to give Obama the benefit of the doubt, now I suspect this might be an assigned recurring theme considering his support staff is also on board with the comments. Either way, I think Palin needs to blow them off and let the left implode as they continue to look more and more ridiculous with every passing day.

“Democratic Congressman Russ Carnahan on Tuesday – introducing Joe Biden at a campaign event – ripped into Palin’s record and punctuated it with this snarky jab. “There’s no way you can dress up that record, even with a lot of lipstick,”
