Tweety just did an attack segment against Edwards

[Prefer]

Saying all he talks about is millwork and he has a new commercial talking about - you guessed it - millworkers.

They really are afraid and trying to rig this thing. Edwards is scaring the shit out of them and that in itself is becoming they story they are trying to avoid. Especially with Lawrence O'Donnell's pathetic stab at Edwards on huffpo.

The other thing it shows is that if they are telegraphing this much fear, then John really is still in this thing in a big way.

1. Is Tweety saying anything positive about ANY of the candidates? nt

[robbedvoter]

2. Yup. Manly Rudy and McCain.

[iamjoy]

6. He Loves Fred Thompson Too

all that gushing he did about Thompson smelling like Aqua Velva.

[madeline_con]

8. PUH leez! That is all. n/t

[Poiuyt]

3. He defends Rudy about how he used the NYPD to walk his Mistress's dog

[walldude]

4. Well, to be fair Ed Wood was a crappy director... n/t

[Benhurst]

5. I think you're right, which reminds me of the extent to which

the corporate media has reduced us to the status of citizens in the Soviet Union, constantly having to read between the lines to find the real story. I guess this is true in any country without a flourishing free press.

[DJ13]

7. I hate to say this, but........

.....the Edwards supporters are going to have to develop a real thick skin in the coming weeks, as many influential Democrats are quietly trying to get Edwards to end his campaign now that Hillary is continuing.

They want those anti-Hillary voters (the natural position of Edwards supporters) to be free to vote for Obama, as they're afraid Edwards remaining in the race will not hurt Hillary, only damage Obama.

(And, lets get real, against the two large war chests of Hillary and Obama Edwards chances are diminishing.)

Tweety is old school Dem, he is just mouthing what those old school Pols in DC are talking about.

12. "...have to develop a real thick skin in the coming weeks,"

I'm ready! I can handle it. He may not be the eventual nominee, but it's not time to throw in the towel yet! I can't believe all the mounting pressure for Edwards to quit. I guess I'm slow or something, but I don't know why it should be reduced to just 2 candidates already??? He could bow out in March or April or May, and they'll have their 2 candidate race then. What's the rush?

edit to add Welcome to DU! :hi:

[gateley]

16. Be true to your heart, liberalla! Hang in there!! nt

[liberalla]

21. Thanks gateley!

:toast:

[Yael]

13. I'm with liberalla

Progressives don't get their panties in a wad about pixels on a computer screen -- they get out there and fight for what they believe in.

[gateley]

17. And I'm with you being with liberalla. Don't stop hoping! nt

[Yael]

19. Thanks gately. Wasn't aware that you had joined our camp!

Joe is still a favorite with me and in these parts (SE PA).

:hi:

[gateley]

25. I haven't joined any camp yet, but I FERVENTLY believe that we should follow

our instincts and follow who we believe in. You can lay your head on your pillow at night knowing you did your best for what/who you believe in.

And I empathize with your frustration in having the media ignore JE -- I know how that feels!

:hug:

And thanks for the kind words about Joe. :hi:

15. Put the glass of Kool-Aid down, and back away from it!

And, lets get real, against the two large war chests of Hillary and Obama Edwards chances are diminishing.

It's all about the MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY MONEY

The candidate with the most money isn't the best candidate for the job. Stop letting the powers that be elect Presidents! It doesn't work so well, in case you haven't noticed the past 7 years. :eyes:

[gateley]

18. And I'm with YOU, too, AndyA. That's always been my bitch - it's always the fucking money. nt

[liberalla]

20. What a KICKASS great post!!!

WARNING! Truth Ahead!

"The candidate with the most money isn't the best candidate for the job. Stop letting the powers that be elect Presidents! It doesn't work so well, in case you haven't noticed the past 7 years."


And THAT is the truth!
:applause:

9. GE is very unhappy with Edwards campaign

all the more reason we need to back him. Edwards will bring about a very big change in their world.

[liberalla]

10. Darn! I missed it - I would've like to seen that.

Doesn't surprise me though... ask any pundit, he's done. (I don't agree!)

They must all be on the same mailing list! Idiots.

For a 'counter-pundit', 'anti-pundit' viewpoint, read Brent Budowsky's most recent column:
The Last Stand of John Edwards
http://pundits.thehill.com/2008/01/11/the-last-stand-of-john-edwards/

He's got his own predictions (and suggestions for Edwards,too).

[bbinacan]

11. Well, the "poor mill worker"

theme does get a little old. He did, after all, become a manager.

[ladjf]

24. I favor Edwards. But, if I were his friend, I'd suggest that he

back off of the "mill worker" theme to a degree.

[comradebillyboy]

14. so did tweety attack Edwards in addition

to Bill&Hill or instead of? I can no longer force my self to watch that drooling simpleton (apologies to other drooling simpletons).

[UTUSN]

22. Neh, not "they" - Tweety is just threatened about HIS supposed "masculinity"!1 n/t

[ladjf]

23. It's a compliment when a Cretan like Mathews attacks you.

[anitar1]

26. I am an old lady and have voted for the last time for someone I do not

support. For me it is Edwards or no one.Too many elections voting for someone I did not like.The one time I was really excited, was voting the primary for Bobby Kennedy .
