Has Dick Morris completely lost it?
Here's an excerpt from Morris' latest opus:

Here's what I see happening in the 2004 presidential race: Al Gore is watching President Bush. Hillary Clinton is watching Gore. Bush is watching Hillary and the Democrats are watching Dean.

Everything clear? Here's the long version:

Bush's poll numbers continue to tank. The Zogby poll has his job approval at 45 percent, a drop of seven points since August and 19 since last year. (Zogby's methodology generally understates job approval, but the downward trend is unmistakable). The Fox News/Opinion Dynamic poll shows that Bush would get only 50 percent of the vote in a trial heat against Gore. It would be a rerun of 2000 - and we'd still be waiting up all night to learn the count in Florida.

But the Democrats know that the president has an ace up his sleeve: Howard Dean. This ultra-liberal, who Bush could defeat with his eyes closed, is racing into the lead in the Democratic field.

1. Never had it
Dick Morris is a liar, an insider who exposed the President he worked for to ridicule. Would you trust a word from a scum like that?

3. In fairness, he did help Clinton win reelection before going insane
His theory of triangulation was true political genius and it is what saved Clinton and got him another term and lead to a defeat of teh Gingrich agenda. However, since around '98 I think he's been smoking crack or something.

2. Dick Morris - the toe-sucking weenis
His fantasy, that all the Democrats are sceming connivers, comes from one source - - every time he looks in the mirror, he sees a scheming conniver and he thinks everyone must be like him.

4. THe fact that ...
he calls Dean an Ultra-Liberal shows that he is completely out of touch. He is only saying this to sway the swing vote that will not vote for a "liberal".

Dean is pretty conservative, and I think that is his strong point, as it will bring in some conservatives that bush has failed.

Cheers

5. ultra liberal?
sorry that won't play and Dean won't allow it to. One of the things against Dean on DU is that he isn't liberal enough.

6. Dick Morris Is, Well, A Dick
"Why is Bush falling so badly? The superficial reasons are the Iraq casualties, the failure to find WMDs and the continuing inability to round up Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden. But the real reason is that terror is receding as an issue, largely due to Bush's success."

Apparently, he also work as a comedian in his spare time.

8. Morris is a one trick pony
No one will listen to anything he says, if he not bashing the Clintons. That is why the FuxNewsChannel hired him. That will be his purpose until the grim reaper harvests one of the players in that little drama.
