Bay Buchanan quits TV punditry, takes online real estate class after Romney’s ‘brutal’ loss

[kpete]

“It was so tough. It was brutal,” she explained. “I think it’s the toughest because we really expected to win it.”

Just two days after the election, Buchanan started an online real estate course and recently became a sales associate for McEnearney Associates Inc. in McLean, Va.

“Being somebody that they kind of know will be a real positive and, as you know, I’m just a charming person,” Buchanan insisted, adding that “compared to what I did in the past, this is an easy sell.”

“It’s so negative and TV is more difficult than ever in the sense that it’s really not an honest debate anymore,” she said of her television talking head days. “I can’t just live my life going on TV and being angry all the time.”

1. That will be

a great loss for TV punditry...NOT!!!

[The Second Stone]

2. What I don't get is that they expected Romney to win

while the rest of the world had Nate Silver to follow. I was only worried between the first and second debates.

4. Really ! How can you put "pundit" and "really thought he would win" in the

same sentence? Idiots. Maybe the repukes got used to always "winning" since they knew the "fix" would kick
in and real votes didn't matter. Perhaps BushCo wouldn't give RobMe the programs

6. This is what happens when you don't believe in science, data, facts...

..."magical thinking" takes over.

[MoonRiver]

3. Yes, her "charm" shines right through in that picture.

[samsingh]

5. people who are the most negative complaining about negative reaction to their negativity

imagine how stupid these people really are.

[Shankapotomus]

7. Political discussion is/was never about

being angry and combative for those who know how to do it...until conservative radio came along, that is.

[Agnosticsherbet]

8. Charming as an "Assault Rifle" with a "30 round clip", is Bay Buchanan.

I wouldn't trust her with a Republican Banker's money.

[truebluegreen]

9. May she be the first of many to bail out

and not just pundits. If, for example, the entire Christianist right threw in the towel out of discouragement and because the rest of us are too evil to deal with....

[wilt the stilt]

10. can't wait until she is in sales

she is going to get her ass kicked. Everyone thinks they can sell. It's a whole different ball game when you are actually in it. One of the toughest jobs out there.

[TeamPooka]

11. more Republican pundits should quit and sell real estate, cars and shoes... nt

[life long demo]

12. 1 down, 390,000,000 to go.

A little exaggerating but not by much.

[question everything]

13. Boo-hoo

[Melinda]

14. LMFAO, I was *sure* this was from The Onion!

Oh, the Schadenfreude, it hurts, it hurts!!

[Capt. Obvious]

15. Now she can be introduced as

Bay "The Closer" Buchanan

[Zoeisright]

16. OMG what fabulous news!!

Not seeing her fucking ugly mug again is priceless.
