I read somewhere that they were interviewing members for the audience and finding out their political views ahead of time.

Magox Posted October 13, 2010 Posted October 13, 2010 This is what David Plouffe was so proud about, that they were able to "control the message" in electing Obama. SOrry, but 2012 won't be the same, the press gave him a pass the first time around, they won't do it a second time. His brand, the "Obama brand" has been tarnished.
ExiledInIllinois Posted October 13, 2010 Posted October 13, 2010 It is funny how this stuff lives on from one side to the next. 5 years ago, the other side was screaming... Now the other other side is screaming it... When will the retard rollercoaster end!! No! Bush did it! No! Clinton did it! No! Bush did it! No! Reagan did it! No! Carter did it! :wacko: Isn't there any shame?

The free passes will dry up. Even "Face the Nation" got after David Axelrod Sunday over the possible foreign funding election made up issue.

Maybe if Obama faces a serious primary challenge. But in the general election they'll be just as deep in the tank for the Democratic nominee in 2012 as they were in 2008
Magox Posted October 13, 2010 Posted October 13, 2010 But in the general election they'll be just as deep in the tank for the Democratic nominee in 2012 as they were in 2008 Not with the same embarrassing intensity as the 08 elections. I guarantee you that. However, what they will do is demonize the opponent to a whole new level that we haven't seen in quite some time. The rhetoric from both sides is getting uglies than usual, and it will certainly continue in 2012.

Just let me choose my opponent.

ExiledInIllinois Posted October 14, 2010 Posted October 14, 2010 No, I'd say they are posing as the antidote.... Yep... Like it all began 2 years ago. Adam is right. The Republicans will save the individual from the collective Goliath! Sounds like a Messiah to me in the making. Help save me, SAVE ME from those nasty Reds!

Sounds like a Messiah to me in the making. Help save me, SAVE ME from those nasty Reds! The Democrats don't get it and The Republicans only get it for awhile. It took Carter to bring about Reagan and Obama to bring about the Tea Party. The Tea Party needs to stay vigilant and keep the Republicans from acting like Democrats.

Conversely it took Nixon to bring about Carter and Bush II to bring about Obama
DC Tom Posted October 15, 2010 Posted October 15, 2010 The press got what they wanted: a historic election. All the more profound an observation for its simplicity and accuracy.
3rdnlng Posted October 15, 2010 Author Posted October 15, 2010 :lol: Lowest common denominator = Reagan and the Tea Party... You even validated it yourself... So, I would assume that you are against fiscal responsibility?
3rdnlng Posted October 15, 2010 Author Posted October 15, 2010 Conversely it took Nixon to bring about Carter and Bush II to bring about Obama You are right, people do over react. Nixon was a weird kind of guy and by no means conservative. Bush was a social conservative but certainly not a fiscal conservative. Reagan's presidency begat Bush #1 who would have been in office for another 4 years if not for a pithy little 3rd party candidate. Regardless, if you can't get past your blind partisanship, and realize that the policies being put forth by this administration will destroy this country, you might just as well ride your rainbow colored unicorn off into the sunset. As much as people make fun of the Tea Party their ideals are what will save this country.
