1. Big mouth billy..

[sandnsea]

2. Yeah I believe that

:eyes:

[Lerkfish]

5. yeah, me too.

since he's like, the second one to do that.

its Rove all over again, throw out the smear and then quietly apologize, but the smear has already done the damage (or at least that used to work, I think people aren't buying it anymore.)

[THUNDER HANDS]

3. heh

give 'em hell, huh?

[jefferson_dem]

4. That sounds like one of those forced admissions signed off on by a bullied suspect.

I don't believe him.

[Colobo]

15. Liz, you know this is another mistake by your candidate's campaign.

[Joe the Revelator]

9. How long before he has to go "Spend More Time With His Family"?

[sandnsea]

19. His wife is running for the Senate

And that is the real travesty, that this dirty smear could end up backfiring all over her and costing us a Senate seat. Just stupid all the way around.

10. "I deeply regret the comments (because they backfired) and

(was told by Howard Wolfson to say that) they were not authorized by the campaign in any way."

[Double T]

11. And I'll bet HRC didn't demand you fall on your sword.

[DS1]

12. Hillary must feel like Cheney and his B52s with nukes

disarmed by a bigmouth under her.

[Lord Helmet]

13. I'll bet they wish they could shove that genie back in the bottle.

too little, too late

[Catherine Vincent]

16. Come on, O supporters...

This could use one more recommendation.

[JackORoses]

17. next thing you know, Hillary will shoot someone in the face and they'll end up apologizing for it

[ClarkUSA]

18. Oh sure, I believe him... and Hillary's "Obama is a Muslim" emailers are really REALLY sorry, too.

Fuck the Clintons. And keep attacking Obama, you Rovian disciples, because everytime you do, his poll numbers keep rising.
