More "helpful" commentary from Trippi the sleazy opportunist

[Proud2BAmurkin]

Q: What's the difference between Joe Trippi and Dick Morris?

A: Nothing

<snip>

The more these images are out there now, the more it helps Bush," said Joe Trippi, who was the campaign manager for Howard Dean, one of Mr. Kerry's rivals for the Democratic nomination.

"Every American wants to keep this fight out of the country, and that has been the hallmark of the Bush campaign."

2. That bottom quotes sounds like a right wing talking point, not Democratic

Why can't he just stay out of the media if he can't say something to help Kerry?

[Proud2BAmurkin]

3. That's the whole point. His goal is to keep his ugly mug on TV

13. Defending Trippi

and of course Nagourney's never been
a friend to Dems in any writing he's
done...

What Joe said was true...the ones who
supported the invasion of Iraq pre-emptively
want the fight to occur outside this country.

and of course, since that's the only quote
pulled into an article by Nagourney, we
don't know in what context the quote from
Trippi was taken.

Whether you like Trippi or not, he still
speaks mostly the truth about what's really
going on. He's not a shill for the DNC or DLC.
Maybe that's why many of us still like him.

and can I say that tripping on Trippi right
now is not supportive of former campaigns.

6. someone posted here earlier that Trippi

said "blogs and other online discussions are quiet on this." as if to say Kerry and his supporters are worried. Hey Trippi, it's just the opposite, there is endless discussion were most want this story talked about endlessly to highlight shrub complete incompetence.

7. I thought it was just me

I detest Joe Trippi, and think the Dick Morris analogy is about right. You'd think *he* invented the internet(s). And blogging. He's a middle aged fart trying hard to sound hip. And he's getting a little to used to hearing his own voice on TV.

I'm hoping that he disappears after Kerry wins.

10. Has Trippi Ever Worked For A Winning Candiate...

Throw him in with the other Fifth Columnist Pat Cadell...

Dick Morriss has never said he was a Dem..

He worked for Trent Lott as well as Clinton...

8. I did hear him say there's no question that the OBL tape helps Bush

Oh, Joe.

9. Trippi pisses me off.

:(

12. I don't even read him anymore.

Watched a little after the debates and he was fitting in with Mitchell and Fineman. No thanks

I would suggest we not give him the satisfaction of comments on his attempts to explain the internet to us. He probably comes here to peek and get inflated.

15. I can't wait for the day when someone mentions "Joe Trippi"

and everyone in the room scratches their head and says, "Joe WHO???" I want him shoved to the bottom of the history barrel.

"Sleazy opportunist" to describe him is being too kind.

16. Who?

well, it's a start
