POSITIVE my ASS!!

NOTHING good EVER happens when the phone RINGs at THREE friggin AM in the morning!!

Everyone KNOWS that!!

it is death, an accident, jail, or some human frightening experience.

Mark Penn is a liar, just like Hillary.

what's the point of even making this comment?

It is hard to determine which is more disastrous, Hillary's would-be national security staff or her current campaign staff.

Mark Penn's career is over. Clinton's presidential aspirations are as well. You can tell, because at this point, they are still letting him out from under his bridge to speak to the press.

"It's 3 a.m., and your children are safe and asleep," the announcer says. "But there's a phone in the White House, and it's ringing — something's happening in the world...
The people of the Middle East have passed the hat around to buy the good old US of A flowers for their birthday. They just misplaced the address...
Who do you want answering that phone.
YOU DECIDE.

Sounds positive to me.

And white is black, and up is down, ignorance is strength and we've always been at war with Eurasia. Sound like newspeak to me! Sound like anyone we know?

it should also be pointed out that the phone RINGS SIX TIMES before Hillary freaking answers it. Was she asleep in the Oval Office? Or just finishing up reading My Pet Goat?

I have learned that when I see a sentence which includes "intriguing" to modify something said by Mark Penn, that a more precise word is "stupid".

It's always positive when this fat pig has a lump of baloney in his mouth.

Obama is being attacked by Hillary, McCain and George Bush simultaneously, and he's doing fine.

The good news is, most Democrats will see this ad for what it is, and vote for Obama.

I'm beginning to think Penn is an Obama plant. No one can really be this stupid... can they?

THIS IS EXCELLENT NEWS!!! FOR HILLARY!!!!

Hey, anyone out there from Texas and Ohio? The Clinton campaign thinks you're stupid. Please prove them wrong on Tuesday and spare the Democratic party from another six weeks of this ridiculousness before Pennsylvania. Thanks.

From the Politico:

I would encourage you on March 5 to call Sen. Clinton at 3 a.m. and ask that question."

Obama spokesperson, when asked if Clinton should drop out if she loses in Ohio and Texas...

I lived in NC when Jesse Helms aired the affirmative action ad in his race against Harvey Gantt. I lived in GA when Saxby Chambliss ran his soft-on-terrorism ads against triple-amputee war hero Max Cleland. I live in Texas now.

This might be the worst of the three ads.

Now we know how Hillary is 'change you can xerox'...she just flips out former political ads as re-treads for her campaign. Here is the original narration from the Mondale redphone ad.

"The most awesome, powerful responsibility in the world lies in the hand that picks up this phone. The idea of an unsure, unsteady, untested hand is something to really think about. This is the issues of our times. On March 20, vote as if the future of the world is at stake. Mondale. This president will know what he's doing, and that's the difference between Gary Hart and Walter Mondale."

Guess what?

Roy Spence, who has been advising the Clinton campaign, was also the media advisor for the 1984 Mondale campaign, and helped to create the red-phone ad.

::::::THREAD CORRUPTION::::::::

Obama picked up three new super delegates today, bringing the Super Delegate tracking total to Clinton 254, Obama 207. Notably, this puts Obama over 1,400 total delegates (Obama 1,401, Clinton 1,291) -- combining supers with the Hard Count, which stands at Obama 1,194, Clinton 1,037. Obama has picked up 37 superdelegates since Super Tuesday; Clinton has lost a net of six.

::::: DONE Corrupting ::::::::::::

Heckuva job Penny!

Maybe if Hillary wins, she'll appoint you head of FEMA.

So it's not fair to ask who's manning (womanning) the White House, who well answer crises?

Are you people fucking insane?

Look, I had a wonderful reunion with an old friend on 9/10, we had an amazing conversation on all sorts of topics, and we woke up the next morning and absolutely everything was turned on its head, and it's been there ever since.

Look, it's plain and simple - do you want Obama or Clinton handling crises. Just answer yes or no, don't act outraged. Someone has to do it. Decide your pick. Cole bombing, WTC 1 or 2, invasion of Afghanistan, occupation of Iranian embassy, Lockerbie bombing, bombing of base in Saudi Arabia. Somebody has to deal with this and it may not be easy.

Maybe Team Billary has hired Bill Kristol as a campaign consultant.

I flipped to FAUX News during a commercial the night of the Ohio debate and Kristol was suggesting this very line of attack for Clinton. In fact he was pretty direct about saying she needed to question his fitness to to be CIC and suggested a good dose of fear. Maybe Kristol is the new Dick Morris.

On the other hand, maybe Penn was watching the same show and thought, "Oh, what the hell, I don't have any other ideas."

I'm starting to believe that Mark Penn is really Karl Rove in a costume.

Mark Rove Penn, another Republican operative working for his Republican candidate.

If I might say, I think that to focus on this story misses the really brilliant line which Penn trotted out today. Over on Marc Ambinder's blog one can find a memo asking how Obama's campaign can go forward if they do not win TX, OH, VT and RI this Tuesday. In other words, anything short of a sweep of all four states indicates that democrats have reservations about Obama.

Now how's that for spin?
