Dick Morris Longs For A Different Republican Nominee
Despite the best efforts of Sean Hannity to spin Friday night's debate (9/26/08) as a win for John McCain, conservative pundit Dick Morris wasn't buying it. During his post-debate interview, he said that Barack Obama won the debate. Then, during his time with Alan Colmes, a notably deflated Morris said, “Frankly, listening to Rudy Giuliani (a previous guest), it emphasized overwhelmingly how the Republican Party nominated the wrong candidate.” Oops, time up, even though Colmes got less than half the time Hannity got in the segment.

Guess we'll both have to keep on wishing.

3. wow, Dick really is a
dick. Giuliani would be rallying conservatives less than McCain. He is twice as liberal on nearly everything, and has committed adultery twice as much.

6. McCain left out foreign policy issues that are core to his base, like immigration.

When Obama talked about going after Bin Laden, he gave McCain a perfect opening to say something like, "But Senator Obama doesn't understand that getting Bin Laden, while good, does not address the national security issue. We need to control our borders to protect America while we go after Osama."

He missed lots of opportunities to appeal to both his base *and* middle America at the same time.

Dick Morris is smart, and he's only about 80% ideologue. Once in a while, he really does nail it. (He's 100% anti-Clinton, though. He'd probably go against his core principles to thwack them.)

7. In the words of Jon Stewart, "Now, now, in Dick Morris' defense, he IS a lying sack of shit."

9. You know McCain is in trouble when a long-time wingnut criticizes him
Dick Morris is aptly named "Dick". He's been trashing Democrats since the late 90s.
