Finally got the transcript - Cafferty on Ferraro:

[Coexist]

I heard the exchange yesterday, and wanted to post it - I know its late to the party, but here you go:

CAFFERTY: This is a comment that's beneath contempt from a woman who should have known better. She owes Barack Obama an apology. She used to have more class than that. I've known Geraldine Ferraro for 25 years and she didn't used to conduct herself this way.

It's despicable. And, no, I don't buy any explanation. It was wrong. And Hillary Clinton's campaign should say thank you, but we no longer require your help, your support, please don't raise more money for us, just go away.

1. Shazaam!

[tabatha]

2. Great! thanks.

Ferraro has smeared herself.

[tishaLA]

3. Cafferty is, of course, right.

[sunnystarr]

10. umm "she didn't used to conduct herself that way?" What a laugh!

From NEXIS: The Associated Press April 14, 1988, Thursday, AM cycle Ferraro: Jackson Won't Be Democratic Nominee LENGTH: 192 words DATELINE: AMHERST, N.Y. Former Democratic vice presidential candidate Geraldine Ferraro says Jesse Jackson won't be the party's presidential nominee and wouldn't be in the race if he were white. Speaking Wednesday at the State University of New York at Buffalo, Ferraro credited Jackson for "grabbing the imagination of the public" and said he is "telling people the things we want to hear, but he won't be able to deliver what he is promising."

23. Email that to Jack

4. Much <3 to Jack

[Tarheel_Dem]

5. dammit, i'm liking that crusty old curmudgeon more and more each

day. Go get 'em Jack. Her only refuge now is the Fox News Channel. Does the cozy relationship of the Clinton campaign with FNC make anyone else feel kinda sick? :puke:

[bunnies]

6. When Pat Buchanan and Bill O are the ones defending you...

there should be NO question that you're on the wrong side.

Cafferty is right on.

[Swamp Rat]

7. Good point

[Coexist]

8. Swamprat - your new graphic

oh my!!

[woolldog]

25. actually, I was listening to O'Reiley today

and he said he thought she was wrong, but not racist.

However, he defended her "right to say" those things, whatever that means.

[InAbLuEsTaTe]

9. Cafferty is right on target, but his words will fall on deaf ears.

[bellasgrams]

11. Cafferty is pandering to the BO followers

[Coexist]

14. I don't even know what to say to that.

[Tarheel_Dem]

17. i really don't even know why i bothered to respond...

normally people who hide their profiles are just bomb throwers and disruptors.

[Tarheel_Dem]

16. I know you think it's cute to refer to Obama supporters as "followers",

but I think that says a whole lot more about you than you probably know.

[americanstranger]

12. Countdown to the 'Cafferty is DEAD to me!' post....

...begins now.

On Edit: Wow, looks like the first one arrived at the same time this post did.

I'm betting it won't be the last, though.

18. It's not late! It's right on time..thank you, FLDem!

And thank you Jack Cafferty..and this is on cnn..ol hilary's water carrying station.

Jack says gerry owes Obama an apology and gerry says Obama should be thanking her..

I think gerry was given her orders from the top to keep this up until the PA Primary.

[Coexist]

27. he was pretty disgusted too.

it was outstanding.

[ray of light]

19. Cafferty has class.

[Major Hogwash]

20. Another 24 hours of news cycles pointing out the racism of the Hillary campaign!!

Oh, geez, what will she do now, cry?

[Coexist]

33. well, she did say it hurt her feelings twice now

[krkaufman]

34. High fives all around their campaign war room, I expect. n/t

[David Zephyr]

21. K&R. I'm still waiting for the media to couple her same comments about Jesse Jackson.

Thanks for your post. K&R.

22. TPMtv presents Ferraro greatest hits

TPMtv: Send in The Clown

Gerry Ferraro is catching a lot of flak these days. But here at TPM we want to thank her. It's been an exhausting primary season. And we've needed some comic relief in a big way. Saying Barack Obama was lucky to be black may only have been one more 'unfortunate' statement in a string of beauts this election cycle. But going on every show currently on the air to express her outrage at the response to her comments has simply been comedy gold. Check out some of the best moments in today's episode of TPMtv ...

26. I just watched that.

I'm truthfully embarrassed for her.

It's her reputation that is taking the hit rather than the campaign (and the candidate!) who put her up to what she did. I wonder if she realizes she got played? Probably not.

28. that was something else.

[HCE SuiGeneris]

31. She is whack...

24. When Wolf Blitzer heard this...

[pompano]

29. Why can't.....

the superdelegates commit and put an end to this slow bleed of the Democratic party?

I'm beginning to think they are as much at fault as anyone. Commit, lets get a nominee and move-on.

If it's within the by-laws whats the friggin holdup! Everyday this drags out is a whole new round of insults, non-apologies and more damage to the party to overcome in November!!!!

It's almost as if their is some joy in holding the suspence card? How much fun is 4 years of McCain folks?

Sorry, I had to vent that. I don't know what the rules or protocol are for the superdelegate commitments.

I don't see any sense of sitting on them just for the fun of it. All they are doing is slowly feeding the bottom dwelling media hypsters.

[Coexist]

30. I wish at least 30 more would just commit, and at least

put it out of reach, so we can move on from this mess.

[pompano]

32. I think it may.....

have something to do with inclusion in the process? Like voting is something really fun and entertaining to do? You stand in line 45 minutes in the cold, check in, then go stand in a contraption pull a curtain behind you and snatch levers? Whooooop eee'.

I vote so I my candidate won't loose. If they can win without my ass standing in the cold, thats fine by me. If my candidate wins I won't be blubbering cause he/she won before I got the distinguished honor of standing in a cold line with blue heads. Shit!

If my candidate wins...Exclude me anytime!
