Democratic Response -- wow! big words!

[Equinox Moon]

So, that is what an intelligent person sounds like.

[onecaliberal]

1. Now THAT is what leadership and truth looks like.

[Blue Idaho]

2. The Pandering Press at M$NBC is laughing at it...

Including that great liberal Rachel Maddow. Fuck them.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

3. Why are they laughing?

[Blue Idaho]

6. They think the speaker is too old and not part of the "Now Generation."

They think Democrats should use it to promote some up and comer. The guffaws were disappointing - especially from Rachel and Eugene Robinson.

[KewlKat]

9. i flipped them and then the channel......watching TCM now. Eff them all!

they should be helping save democracy, not supporting the effer Con.

[Blue Idaho]

13. Yup

I'm starting to think the "smartest girl in the room" Rachel Maddow is no longer a friend of the Democratic Party. Maybe her new BFF Greta VanS is turning her.

12. MSNBC was not entirely incorrect.

The comments were juvenile in their delivery, but not off base. A septuagenarian governor from Kentucky is not the future of the Democratic Party notwithstanding what was a good speech given the circumstances, and the Party does need to give opportunities to those who can take the Party forward and who might make viable candidates in the future.

[KewlKat]

5. really pissed me off......compared his speech to some guy, can't think of his name

right now, a rethug, that was an embarrassment.

was it bobby jindal....?

[Equinox Moon]

4. He did a great job.

My first time meeting him.

[C_U_L8R]

7. Bad staging but so what

We not only had the best words but we can string them together in real sentences built on compassion, smarts and strategy.

[MFM008]

8. yeah

saying what a lousy choice he was at 72 and ex gov.
to old, to old school, audience was held captive..........
Why not Juan Castro or Kamala Harris?

[KewlKat]

10. yeah....the held captive comment was uncalled for. What was it they called them?

[spanone]

19. 'hostages'

[Brother Buzz]

14. Ummm, their target audience, spicificly, was rural older white men

Anyone drawn to Juan Castro or Kamala Harris are already on board.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

15. And the target audience probably wasn't watching MSNBC.

[Brother Buzz]

16. Who didn't carry the Democratic response?

[kstewart33]

11. Wow. Rachel and company blew off a very effective response speech.

The former governor identified major Dem complaints about Trump from his Wall Street cabinet to the 'repeal and replace' fiasco.

Thought it was a great response and so disappointed by the MSNBC response. Talk about age bias.
