Arnie attempts to dominate with "PUB Put Downs". Used to work but |
|
getting old real quick.
At one time, it was cute, "There you go again".....
But nowadays, its beyond sound bites and putdowns. People are starting to hunger for better meat. The meat of truth and sanity far outlasts the Putdown humor laugh which is really distracting.
Truth and Sanity is long lasting compared to the fleeting putdown laugh. Arnie is empty.

2. I liked that Bustamante was dismissive of Arnold. I don't know how |
|
the average voter felt about it, but I thought it sort of drew attention to the sense that Arnold had memorized lots of superficial facts, but that, simply repeating percentages doesn't constitute a grasp of the issues, or even a coherent message.

4. Plus, he didn't get the FOX memo. |
|
The FOX News execs have to be chewing their seatcovers off at Arnie's performance in the debate. What good, after all, does it do for them to instruct their reporters not to make movie puns if Arnie won't stop making them himself?!? Here they're going to all this fair and balanced trouble to keep him from being associated with the 'circus', and he's barging right into Clown Alley of his own free will.
Plus, the difference between "there you go again" was that here it was Arnie who comes off as the badgerer, even in the minced-up clips CNN was showing. It's hard to sympathize with the "direct personal attack" (says the so-called moderator) that Arnie is snidely responding to when it clearly came after he interrupted the woman's attempts to speak.
Maybe that's the problem: did Arnie happen to hire O'Reilly as a communications director? ;-)

8. He was downright fucking RUDE |
|
Beligerant, offensive, and a know nothing who memorized a few numbers to make his case. Arianna ripped him a new asshole
Arnie gets a lotta help from his PUB Masters and it shows.
Fuck him. He did nothing to help himself and the Pubs. He Blew it.

6. Arnold Came Off As A Bully |
|
Arnold used ridicule as a way to fend off criticism so often that he came off sounding difficult to deal with. His father was a Nazi police chief, and Arnold is his son!
