Bush did McCain no favors tonight.....

[scheming daemons]

..and I'm speaking as objectively as a I can.


That speech might be the one thing in the universe that had both netroots and freepers cringing.


Bush's approval rating will be below 15% in a week.

1. Bush continues to be Obama's best surrogate

[GrizzlyMan]

2. They handed Obama a wonderful meme

Bush blames it all on the people. Bush and McCain are the same.

My God, what a gift.

[Cha]

3. How dare he blame it on the people?!

Has he no sense at all?

[GrizzlyMan]

7. I was grinning from ear to fucking ear when he said it

Even as we speak the Obama team is cutting the TV ads.

[Loge23]

4. This is all about McCain

The strategy here is to hand the solution to McCain.
Watch, that will the "big story" by Monday.
Obama is walking into a trap tomorrow.
High Crimes.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

9. shit. can't believe I missed it. What'd he say? Hurry, hurry, money now?

[hexola]

11. He said: I need to get back to DC to agree with George Bush one more time!!

10. OMG it was tonight?

What did he say?

Shit. The one Bush speech I might have actually wanted to see....

[Politicub]

12. It was an anemic speech

I expected him to go all fire and brimstone, but he didn't. My more level headed partner brought me back to earth by reminding me that dems control the congress, and Bush needs their cooperation or he gets nothing accomplished for his fat cat Wall Street pals.

13. Does anyone have a video link yet?

[Fleshdancer]

14. CNN guy just made a good point:

Americans blame the party in the WH when the economy goes bad and tonight Bush reminded everyone that the party in the WH right now are the republicans. This does not help McCain.
