heh, heh...[Obama] looks like he's running for Jimmy Carter's third term...heh,heh .*crocodile grin*

[Skidmore]

followed by a deer in the headlight stare when Gibson (ABC just now) asked McCain what he meant by that. McCain clearly thought he had a clever one-liner and wasn't prepared to deal with substance for his charge. He's not going to win this by trying to be Johnny Carson.

This guy is beyond disgusting.

[mcctatas]

1. The follow up question threw him because he can't remember

the Carter years;)

[Cha]

9. Only that they were

"bad". Carter's still kickin' and kickin' strong so he can come out and tell mccain what for..sweet irony.

[tekisui]

2. What happened to Jimmy Carter's 2nd term?

That was lame on many levels.

[TwilightGardener]

4. That's what I thought. Maybe in Grampa's failing memory, Carter had 8 years.

[Skidmore]

6. Yup...what I think is fascinating is how this

guy who is always puffed up by the media as being so funny and clever just is really nervous and uncomfortable in his skin. That's what trying to be all things to all people gets you.

[Arkana]

21. I was wondering the same thing.

[hokies4ever]

32. It's been on the right-wing blogs

People asking, "Why won't he say Obama = 2nd Carter term when Obama says McCain = 3rd Bush term?"

[EFerrari]

3. He's not even paying attention.

:rofl:

[PM7nj]

5. Did he actually say THIRD term?

I guess he forgot about his hero Ronnie Raygun.

[Skidmore]

7. Yes he did.

[PM7nj]

13. What an idiot.

Could this guy be even dumber than Bush? I think so.

[jenmito]

22. No he didn't. The OP got it confused with the FIRST part of his statement when he said Obama

always says he (McCain) is running for Bush's third term.

[BlooInBloo]

25. Sounded like "second" to me.

[jenmito]

27. You're right. n/t

[bluedawg12]

29. He said 2nd term on another sound bite- the memory is failing fast

he's truly dangerous.

[hokies4ever]

33. Can we just have a mercy rule and have the Repubs concede now?

:rofl:

[bluedawg12]

34. Naw- we need an election baffoon! McClown n/t

[pdxmom]

8. McCain is going to absolutely lose it before this is over. Big time and in

living color on all our TV sets. Someone is going to actually back him into a corner and he will just explode. I wait patiently for that moment.

[cottonseed]

14. What she said ^^

I feel the same way. I think we're going to be witness to a very public and very frightening meltdown before this campaign is through.

[Nite Owl]

10. We'd be so much better off

if Carter did serve two terms!

[Drunken Irishman]

11. McCain can't even get a joke right. Carter was bounced after ONE TERM.

[ErinBerin84]

12. McCain always give a "I'm so fucking brilliant and snarky " look fter his one liners.

I remember his speech (I think the speech after he clinched the republican nomination) when he said at the end "I'm all fired up!", in a knock against Barack Obama, and the crowd went "oooooh!" His taunts are so laughable and pathetic! Just like his "audICITY of hope!" screw up.

[jakem]

30. it is the "Three's Company" look at the camera!

but is it Roper? or Furley?~

[AllentownJake]

15. over 60% of the electorate

probably more wasn't eligble to vote for Carter.

Hell Obama was barely eligible to vote for Carter you nitwit.

[Elidor]

16. He's the weakest candidate I've ever seen

He'll soon have the republicans pining for the good old days of Bob Dole.

[AtomicKitten]

17. his ratface snicker makes my skin crawl

plus his teeth are the same color as his skin

[Gold Metal Flake]

18. He is a cardboard cut-out.

He's a rotten fence.

He's a dried corn stalk.

One good shove and down he will go.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

19. He's dumber than a stump too. When was Carter's second term? nt

[jenmito]

20. He said Obama looks like he's running for Carter's SECOND term. I saw it...

He started by saying Obama says he (McCain) is running for Bush's 3rd term.

[dansolo]

23. What is disgusting is the media who will probably gloss this over

If this gaffe came out of the mouth of a Democrat, we'd be hearing about it incessantly.

[jenmito]

26. He said SECOND term. n/t

[IndyOp]

31. Oops disregard...

I didn't read the whole thread. Sry.

[Occam Bandage]

24. So, er...who was Carter's second term? Clinton? But Clinton had two. Bush I, maybe?

[MrRobotsHolyOrders]

28. Barack Obama makes Adlai Stevenson look like Estes Kefauver!

But hey, what America wants is a clever one liner about a guy who was president 28 years ago.

Nobody seems to believe me, but John McCain is going to get flattened. Like, Goldwater flattened.

[skooooo]

35. That is a nasty yellow grin he has there!

[Erin Elizabeth]

36. Wow. McSame is even worse as a candidate

than I ever thought he would be. I mean, I never thought he'd be awesome. But damn, he's just fifteen kinds of suck.

[papapi]

37. Owl shit deserves equal time if this is the best repukes can do!

[onetwo]

38. Is there video footage anywhere on the ineternet yet? nt
