CNN discussing "debate chivalry"
Edited on Thu Jan-31-08 07:01 PM by bidenista
Including raising the "likable enough" remark and snubgate. I'm so glad these people are organizing the debate this evening.

:eyes:

Edited to add: they interviewed some people on Obama's "likable enough" gag. Didn't go down well. Psychiatrist claimed it revealed his true feelings.

12. I know right?
If she is going to be a leader in the feminist movement, what part does chivalry play in that? And when was there a law written that someone has to LIKE their opponent? She is not all that likable so why would HE like her?

2. ...
Those were two political blunders on Obama's part. I hope he learned from these mistakes and hope it doesn't cost us. Stupidly, its little things that can overturn an election. Remember the infamous "cry"? Hillary won NH with that little doozy. Sad but true, most don't really vote on the issues, they vote on the "image" even if that image if fakery.

9. ridiculous
yes all of "12" women. whoopedeedoo. Thats sure is "alot" of women. If some women are stupid enough to vote based on a perceived "snub" then they're stupid. If women vote based on that one incident when it has been documented that Hillary snubbed Obama many times when he announced he was running then I'm ashamed for them b/c its truly ridiculous.

7. I have noticed how hard you have worked for Hillary today.
You have posted every bad news story you can find to to trash Obama.

Nice Work.

11. another satisfied customer
Seriously, you guys need to toughen up if you want to take it all the way to the GE. A few critical MSM stories on DU is going to look like a bouquet of roses compared to what the Republicans have waiting.

Anyway, this thread is criticizing CNN, not Obama.

19. I'm not complaining: I am just noticing.
Obama and all of his supporters including me will be ready for all the Republican dirt.


And do not be surprised, if he is wearing teflon through the entire fall.
