Brokaw comments make me think, "McCain thinks he's still in Viet Nam!" |
|
On MSNBC Brokaw compared McCain's odd tactics to guerilla moves, lying in wait, pulling more than one "ambush" (Palin and debates).
Sounds like John McCain thinks its 1967 and he's a Viet Kong guerilla!
He certainly isn't being rational, professional, or presidential.

2. Except that McCain never encountered the VC in that capacity. |
|
He was a pilot after all.

4. No he didn't, the analogy was striking nonetheless. |
|
Guerilla tactics are what you're left to use when you're outgunned and desperate.

Brokaw thinks that McCain being stuck in the past is a GOOD THING?

6. the comparison was mine, not Brokaw's... |
|
He just suggested that McCain is using these unusual tactics and that they have been working but only working "so far"...

Brokaw still sucks :)
It reminds me of what Andrea Mitchell said a while ago (a couple of months ago)..when McCain dislikes someone, he takes everything so god damn personally! I think he really does resent the fact that he is not really the media darling anymore. He'd do anything to grab the spotlight away from his bc he is a fucking diva, just like with his Sarah Palin pick. Drama first. Country last.

11. McCain's not making many friends anywhere lately... |
|
Dodging the media, shielding Palin from any meaningful interaction.
What a trainwreck....

13. That was surreal. And Brokaw has complained about Olbermann and Matthews. |
