Years of cocaine abuse have fried parts of Imus' brain
He doesn't support Dubya, but he thinks Bush will win and he connects better with people. And think that John Fogerty and Jon Bon Jovi turn people off.

George Bush Will Win the Election, Imus Predicts
Sun Oct 10 2004 09:12:58 ET

New York – Broadcaster Don Imus tells TIME George Bush is going to win the election. “I’m not going to vote for him, but I think he connects better with the American people, and I think the Administration has scared people to death. And I think people resent having John Fogerty and Jon Bon Jovi tell them who to vote for.”

Bush is “probably a decent guy, but he’s in way over his head. I think he got gun-shy as a result of that heisting of the election in 2000. I don’t think he ever even thought of himself as a legitimate President. And rather than try to govern by some sort of consensus or at least involve some other points of view, he’s tried to make up for it by this arrogant conduct of foreign policy. By the way, it’s not like I think Senator Kerry would be much better.”

Imus, 64, tells TIME he’s not retiring any time soon: “I don’t have any timetable, but I don’t think I’ll be capable of pulling a Mike Wallace. Gum is already falling out of my mouth. But I’m not wetting myself or anything like that. I mean, it’s fun, and I like doing it. As long as people fear me, I’ll do it.”

7. He's only 64?
He looks like he's 84. I think he has Keith Richards disease.

10. Imus doesn't think he could "pull a Mike Wallace"?
Edited on Sun Oct-10-04 11:02 AM by arewenotdemo
That's right in more ways than one.

He couldn't carry Wallace's jock.

Fence-sitting whores are always the worst.
