Obama’s Inexperience Tough to Ignore

[mraynrand]

things must be tough on the republican side when they are rehasing things that happened a month ago..for barely a day or so.

Ooooo, a WHOLE month ago. Sounds like someone has ADD. It's hard to go back much further with a guy who is scrubbing his record. Hey Wha happened to all those records from Obama's State Senate days? Hey, how about the billing for service to Tony Resko. Pretty soon, The Imperial Emblem may be absent from virtually every site. Tony Who? Sorry, never heard of him. Emblem, what emblem? Hey Winston, how goes the cleansing of the past? Well, you know what they say in the Obama camp: the future is certain, but the past keeps changing...Change you can sort of believe in.

4 months to go and you guys are rehashing the emblem "scandal."

Oh, now were not allowed to discuss anything in the campaign?

Lets see..do not bring up the following:

my experience
my home loans
my friends
my church
my friends at church
my opinionated wife who campaigns for me
my resume
anyone on my staff
my ears
the color of my skin
my father
my nicotine habit
my record in the senate
my record as a state senator


just do what i say and listen to the pandering, waffling and flipping and flopping and everything will be fine.

more importantly forget that I want to double the capital gains tax assuring that all investment capital will run out of the country faster than ben johnson on roids.

Who said you couldn't discuss them?

Senator Obama and his followers in the MSM.

Senator Obama and his followers in the MSM.

McCain has made two trips to Iraq during this campaign, and both were barely covered.

Obama makes an overseas trip this week, and it is covered like an important international event. All three network anchors will be travelling to appear with Presdident Assumed Barrack Obama and capture history in the making.

The time that the TV news shows spend on Obama compared to McCain is nearly 3:1.

This campaign is hard to watch, there is no way that McCain is going to overcome the media advantages of President Obama.

Come on Harlan...this is News! McCain has done it..so it isn't at the same level of newsworthyness.

And, for the McCain crowd to complain about the media is laughable. McCain long got a free ride with them...openly courting the media, very tight with them. Then, he decided to cut them out...no longer the free wheeling McCain.

My god, McCain was the media darling in 2000.

Its true that McCain has been a media favorite for about 10 years.

I like to think he earned that through his reputation for speaking directly and clearly. He was a good quote.

The comparison on the earlier McCain trip and Obama's celebrated grand tour is apt. There has never been a media phenomena like Obama in my lifetime.

The media reverence for Obama was on full display with the recent controversy over the New Yorker cover.

First of all, anybody with a six grade education could figure out it was a parody in support of Barrak Obama. They were mocking the stereotypes about the Obamas.

But then the notion that it might actually be interpreted as a negative statement about our Saviours was suggested, suddenly it was a crisis. There was a spasm of media self-reflection. I watched a 20 minute (!!) discussion with Gwen Iffil on PBS where Iffil was as somber as a priest giving last rites. The editor of the New Yorker was on to express his deep concern that some might have misinterpreted the cartoon as actually suggesting that Mr. or Mrs. Saviour hold radical views.

Compare this with McCain, who is constantly parodied as an old geezer. Can you imagine a backlash of panel discussions to decry the social evil of agism?

He is getting what he deserves for his free speech crushing finance reform. Anyone who couldn't see this coming is unfit to be president. Sorry John, you are a tool who was used by the left, now that they are done with you they will discard you as you rightfully deserve for being such a naive nitwit.

The comment is so disconnected I don't know where to begin. Media coverage has nothing to do with campaign finance.

Unless you are suggesting that without campaign finance, McCain could overcome the media bias with paid advertising. I guess that is the old Republican paradigm.

But even that makes no sense, McCain is not being hamstrung by Campaign Finance limits. On the contrary, he is at a crushing disadvantage in paid advertising precisely because Obama recently decided that Campaign Finance is a bad idea after all.

If anything, this election may be an argument for a mandatory version of McCain's weak legislation.

Well, he certainly isn't speaking clearly now...confusing iraq and iran, sunnis and shia.

The whole obama media attention cracks me up. Sure, he gets a ton...a ton of negative....wright, emblem, muslim, madrassa, his wife, etc.
