I don’t have a dog in the fight between Mittens and the Gummy Bear. But this ad is dumb.
So, if we follow this ad out to the logic it implies, Mitt Romney would allow Nancy Pelosi (and by extension every other enemy of the GOP) to hold the party’s nomination process hostage. The mere threat from them to release damaging information, saith Mitt, is enough to not vote for Gingrich.
Even though Pelosi’s staff have already come out and said that, like Sgt Schultz on Hogan’s Heroes, she knows nothing. You have to have a certain contempt for your audience to try peddling this ad as if Pelosi’s word is worth the air it passes through.
For those keeping score at home, in this ad we have Romney, who has been complaining about Newt attacking him from the left, using the GOP’s arch nemesis on the left, to attack Gingrich, who has been attacking Romney from the left. Given the way this primary has gone, this clueless attack ad will give Romney a 5 point boost in the Florida polls.






Let me guess, Newt tried to grab her knee while they were sitting there on that couch?
That’s what I was thinking!
Thanks. I have to take a shower now.
I feel like I just watched Romney strap a dog hutch to the top of his campaign with Nancy Pelosi inside, and drive off.
At least that would account for the streaks of excrement all over Romney’s campaign.
Things like this are why I also don’t support Mittens with either my words or my wallet.
Understood. But once one of these bozos becomes the Last Bozo Standing and has to face off against the Incumbent Bozo, it is incumbent upon us to assist the Last Bozo Standing in his bid to unseat the Incumbent Bozo.
An unpleasant task, I grant you—but a necessary one if there is to be a change of bozo.
The rather silly Pelosi attempt to damage Gingrich’s nominating chances has turned to the advantage of Newt with his quick replied,
- “I rather have Pelosi threten me than endorse me”.
Game, set, match!
In fighter terms this is called an energy excursion to get the kill.
Cheap theater, lousy movie.
Just freaking stupid on a galactically stupid level. Utterly devoid of honor.
This whole damn thing is just so ugly, stupid and reckless.
We have a malignant narcissist Fabian in the White House…and the “B” team candidates think that’s an instruction manual.
This is like watching a bad WWF match, did Linda McMahon pick this slate?
Unless the question has to do with Botox injections, anyone looking for an answer that depends upon Nancy Pelosi to supply it, has serious judgment issues.
While Newt’s attack prompted Rush to conjure up Fidel Castro analogies, THIS is equally beneath contempt. While Romney is not throwing the entire country into the circular swirling pool, it’s still so despicable and unworthy we all suffer the shame of it anyway.
Really, really, really…WE SHOULD DEMAND BETTER. Now.
A pox on all their houses. Erase the slate. Start over. DEMAND BETTER.
And pull this freaking abomination…today.
galactically stupid level
That’s Mitt for you. I think he poisoned the well at the beginning of the season and now that’s all we have to drink from.
In other clown car news…Rick Perry has just gotten the results of how Texans feel about his “comical stylings” during the “B” team Bozo Brigade march.
He is now below OBAMA…among TEXANS.
Perry ran for president as a quintessential Texan, bragging about the state’s job-creation record and conservative values. With his stumbles, many of those polled believe that Perry tarnished the Lone Star brand, with 45 percent saying the nation’s image of Texas is worse after his presidential run. Only 17 percent said it improved.
Joel Moore, a disabled Army veteran from Dallas, said he’s never been a big Perry fan, but now he’s even less so.
“His actions have made it look like people in Texas are absolute fools,” said Moore, a poll respondent. “I always thought he was foolish and then the more he talked, the more doubt he removed.”
