"

Here’s a lengthy segment from MSNBC today, where lovely anchor/reporter Andrea Mitchell talks on the telephone to McCain campaign manager Rick Davis, the adult retarded child responsible for that hilarious memo yesterday about Obama’s food choices, excercise regimen and overall popularity everywhere. He’s a twit. He tells Andrea that the McCain campaign has always been positive and not Trivial; it is focused on Important Issues like offshore drilling. Andrea’s like, “you’re an idiot, you stupid idiot” and Rick’s like, “no Barry Obama is an idiot.” The best part is when they talk about peanut butter snacks 12 minutes in. Peanut butter snacks…"

4. Wow they are realy losing it over there

If we somehow end up with these fools in charge of our country its going to be a very rough four years.

5. It seems to me that Ms. Mitchell let Rick Davis spew crap for 13 minutes

and never came up with a good response. Sadly, I don't think she nailed him at all. She asked some good questions that he never answered and she didn't follow up.

[Westegg]

9. I totally agree, lob1... I'm stunned by that...

...who cares about her closing "dig" at Davis? The guy's bullshit went unchallenged for most of that loonnnggg interview.

Depressing as hell.

[Bluerthanblue]

10. I'm not usually thrilled with Andrea, but she did a good

job of making Davis look like the asshole that he is.

IMO-

Actually, she spoke words of truth and common sense while he ranted and spun-

I was pleasantly surprised by her stand- for a change.

:hi:

[kysrsoze]

12. Exactly. I'm not an Andrea fan, but she let him make a complete @ss of himself for 13 mins

She asked him the right questions, more than once, and showed him for the jagoff he really is.

[Hestia]

6. Did Obama's campaign manager get 13 minutes like this asshole?

[Barack_America]

7. Doesn't work for me. Can't wait until it goes up on the youtube...

I've GOT to see this.

8. Try grantcart's link--and do not miss her closing remarks!

You're gonna love it!

11. I don't understand why people are viewing this as a "meltdown"

I thought the guy got the talking points out there that he wanted to get out.


He's a despicable clown.... but that wasn't a meltdown. He was in control of the conversation the whole time.


Andrea was more flummoxed than he was.

[Ichingcarpenter]

13. I'm aghast on Andrea Mitchell's reporting and interview

This can't be the same Andrea? Great takedown and meltdown.

[Renew Deal]

14. She wasn't that tough.

She tried, but she couldn't get the words out. It does show that there's some backlash in the media though.

[hedgehog]

15. Did you catch the part where Rick Davis complained that Obama said the same thing

at 3 different campaign stops! How are they going to make the flip-flopper charge stick if he's consistent like that!

[hedgehog]

16. At the risk of igniting memeories of nasty fights here, did anyone else

notice that Rick Davis defended McCain's tactics by saying that Hillary used them first?

[Psst_Im_Not_Here]

17. Call the wah-mbulance

someone sounds jealous!! LOL That's how it sounded to me and I'm sure it sounds like that to more than just me.
