Is ANYONE ELSE watching Charlie Rose?!? Cokie Roberts - Obama has no more experience
than Sarah Palin! Rollins and Cokie and some other douchebag - Sarah is exciting, she is energizing.....Al Hunt and - gasp - Mark Halperin are trying to inject a bit of reality....

Two things are very clear - the MSM is either not paying attention to what is breaking on the blogs (Hunt and Halperin obviously do, but don't want to go there)....or they are so deep in the pocket for McCain that we are facing insurmountable obstacles.

Oh yes, one more thing - Cokie Roberts is utterly useless!

6. She jumped the shark when she started making the long dollar and
decided her tax return was more important than the welfare of the country...

7. Charlie Cook is on - I think he can barely control himself.
I don't know why he just doesn't get up and walk away from this gang.
They also have a few Repug strategists....who are speaking true shit (Sarah Palin is good for the party)....
They are wondering if she will help with independents.
Charlie Cook said that Palin's pick will make McCain's age even more of an issue.

Bullshit meter is going off so badly here....

Cokie chimes in with more shit - saying it is the older voters who will decide the election, and old voters don't like Obama.

I am about to vomit on my keyboard...

10. Older Voters Like Cokie
Gawd she's awful. And Cokie many older voters I call, don't want a 72 year old to be POTUS.

15. 'Palin's pick will make McCain's age even more of an issue."
Damn right - that's the heart of the issue. That's a big reason why this is much worse than the Quayle pick (aside from the fact that she makes Potatoe Head appear well-qualified): Bush the Elder was a little younger and in reasonably good health. McCrash seems like an unusually old 72, frankly - I know plenty of people his age who are much more together.

8. I really loathe her weary know-it-all tone.
And the way she always, always tries to make everything equivalent between Democrats and Republicans. She is tedious and uninsightful.

9. Hence the term: Snortin' Cokie.
What is Snortin' Cokie? It's what you call it when some idiot Beltway insider, who wouldn't know their ass from their elbow, says something mind-numbingly stupid. In a way, it's sort of like referring to somebody who buys into some crazy hype by saying: "Wow, those freepers are sure drinking Bush's Koolaid today." Except in this case, it's somebody from the status quo stating something as fact, when it's moronic. Like say when Mark Halperin said Obama going after McCain's housing gaffe would be a gift for McCain. You might say: "Wow, Mark Halperin thinks the housing gaffe with hurt Obama, he must be Snortin' Cokie again."

In this intance, it was the master, the person who the term was named after, who actually was Snortin' Cokie. That's why she's such a legend.

11. I do not see how when their background and experience is listed side by side
that Palin is not weighed in the balance and found wanting compared to Obama. World leader know Obama, but other than the Canadian PM most are probably wondering who the hell she is.

13. Fucking Cokie Roberts. The other day she was basically saying Palin was right to fire the B.I.L.
because he was a nasty guy.

Goddamn, she needs to be smacked upside her brainless head!
