Today's GOP Talking Point™ regarding Obama...

[ColbertWatcher]

...is that he is a celebrity more concerned with his image than any substance his candidacy.

it is my contention that this is the GOP's way of deflecting attention to McCain's obvious and well-known vanity.

If this is true, I believe we can nip this crap in the bud.

The formula is clear: the GOP take a McCain fault, then projected it onto Obama, making up connections to fit the ideology.

My question is: What are McCain's other faults, and how will they be twisted to be pinned onto Obama?

We can get ahead of the GOP hate machine if we put our heads together.

1. Obama is ANGRY!

Just like McCain is except Obama's is that really scary BLACK anger. The kind that might cause him, in a fit of rage, to enslave the entire white race. :scared:

2. That's a good one! (EDITED TO ADD) When they pull this one...

...and I suspect they will, we can say they have no real solutions for America and steal whatever ideas they come up with from an online thinking experiment.

The GOP are losers.

3. Are they going to snipe at Obama for the next 4

and probably 8 years on a daily basis about every goddamned thing from the color of his socks to the way he wears his fucking sunglasses never mind if he should somehow misspeak in the next 8 years.

5. When the GOP leaves the White House...

...and they will not go easily they know their crimes will be discovered.

They will do whatever it takes to prevent the skeletons from being discovered.

I expect more Ohios and Floridas.

Ohios and FLoridas and Colorados and NewHampshires and Virginias and Nevadas......

6. He's probably on retainer with the House of Saudi-Bush. n/t

[applegrove]

8. I don't agree. I think connecting Obama with frivolous celebrity is an attempt to innoculate McCain

from looking like a looser every time Obama speaks in front of a crowd to accolades.

[ColbertWatcher]

9. Yes, but...

...the underlying issue is to prevent the conversation from being about McCain in general and McCain's vanity in specific.
