malaise (105,943 posts)

So let me see if I got this straight

WilLIARd Rmoney had to line up an interview with Hannity to walk back his 47% hate fest because President Obama never gave him a single opportunity during the debate. We all know that the focus groups and polls show that he's taken a severe beating given his contempt for the 47%.

Now everyone is talking about Big Bird and no one gives a shit that he now claims to be for the 100%.
No drama Obama is the big winner two days later.
