“Ten Reasons Why McCain Doesn’t Have a Prayer”
From Rick Moran, Pajamas Media. – Whose post, it should be pointed out, may just count as reason number eleven. But go easy on Rick. Remember: fat kids, opaque girl, and the swarthy subcontinental paneer cheese cube. That could be YOU at that table, people…* 34 Comments ::: Post a comment »RSS feed for comments on this post.

Aren’t reasons 7, 8, 9 and 10 kinda the same?
Comment by happyfeet on 10/30 @ 10:45 am #
Wow. Pajamas is really bringing the value-added. I might just ditch NPR for good at this rate.

They went to really good schools I betcha. You can tell.

I’m just glad Rick Moran didn’t have a column during the time when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor.

Or when the Soviets bombed Hiroshima.

…or you could be at the “cool” table with Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann.

I think it’s neat personally how there’s a nice round number of reasons to flush capitalism down the toilet. It’s an uncommonly tidy epochal transition. Rick’s new president sounds like a real find I think.

I just heard an Obama ad on the radio. The “Kansas” ad. You know “I was raised by Kansas whities who taught me whitey’s values like accountability and SELF RELIANCE. Hang on. Self reliance? Like taking care of yourself? That kind of self reliance? Cause now I’m confused.

Somebody needs to explain to Moran how bookies set odds, he obviously hasn’t a clue.
Comment by Rick Moran on 10/30 @ 11:58 am #
My might pen hath slain the Gorgon McCain.
Jesus people, get a grip. Since when is showing why someone is going to lose an election the same thing as rooting for him to lose? What possible impact could an article from (gag) RICK MORAN have on an election where 130 million people are going to vote? Especially when it’s published on a website where 99.99% of the people are voting for McCain no matter what anyone says?
Loony Tunes!

Sorry Rick. We’re throwing you overboard. We’re holding out hope until Tuesday, at which point we’ll be prepared to get really (really!) drunk. Either way.
It’s a win/win.

I gotta agree with Rick on this one. It’s pessimistic, to be sure, which I personally find off putting, but not written with hope.
Comment by JBean on 10/30 @ 12:05 pm #
Moran has a certain dictatorial quality about him. Everything he writes is in caps, even though it isn’t. I just hope he doesn’t forget to take his meds.

Is that a trick question?
Comment by happyfeet on 10/30 @ 12:30 pm #
Actually though it’s just all stupid what you wrote Mr. Rick Moran I think cause you act like you’ve got this election all figured out like it was Baracky running against John McCain. I don’t know what election you’ve been following but this election is a choice between our beloved corrupt socialist media and a vibrant society of individuals engaged in free enterprise what enjoy uncommon liberty. John McCain doesn’t have anything to do with it and Sarah Palin even less. You must listen to NPR.

Next Wednesday, I WILL be laughing (“Hah Hah”). The only question is, who will I be pointing at?
Comment by happyfeet on 10/30 @ 12:50 pm #
Daddy, what did you do right before the dirty socialist darkness felled?
I made a list, sweetheart.
oh.
Comment by Matt, Esq. on 10/30 @ 2:31 pm #
Dear Rick- because its redundant and unncessary on a conservative site. I can go to Huffpo and get the exact same thing. I am tired of “pundits” on conservative blogs going weak knee’d and then spewing all of their doom and gloom down on paper. And if one conservative doesn’t go vote after reading your column (because its “hopeless”) then you’ve successfully undermined the McCain campaign. You don’t think words have meaning ?
Comment by syn on 10/30 @ 4:20 pm #
Well, ancedotal however my 43 year sister is voting for the first time in her life and is voting straight Republican in a swing state; and, she doesn’t have a computer but she does watch TV and is sick to death of the BS.
I have to agree with this:
“choice between our beloved corrupt socialist media and a vibrant society of individuals engaged in free enterprise”
I think there are quite a few people like my sister who are not hooked into the poll machine, so no one will know what is going on until the winners are declared.
I doubt it will be Nov 5th though, Obama’s Party of Marxists Lawyers will do everything in their power to disrupt free elections.

#18 Matt, Esq.:
It is amazing that a person who makes his living through words doesn’t think that words have meaning. Kind of undermines any reason to hire him.

I wanted to talk more to nishi over on Rick’s Pajama thread but the moderating thing is really off-putting. Pajamas should just have a brand extension and call it Pajamas Unmoderated and actually cultivate a bit of sticky. Like real websites do. I bet their investors would like that.

Happy? Talk to your turtles. In the end they make more sense and you have the benefit of actually making a difference in their world.

Why would you want to do that?
Feel you need more convincing on how stupid the Stepford 2 digit xian Sarah Palin is?
Comment by happyfeet on 10/30 @ 8:00 pm #
I just think for real if people want to do soul-searching about, and I hate hate hate this phrase, “The Conservative Movement,” they should talk to nishi. Her point of view you can think is whack but for real the soul-searchy types will eat fail if they don’t address her memes I think.
Comment by lee on 10/30 @ 8:09 pm #
I have tried to address nishi’s memes.
They still kept coming back “return to sender, residence unoccupied”
Comment by maggie katzen on 10/30 @ 8:14 pm #
eh, they mostly struck me as “here’s what you do to be popular”. for some of us, means are important to ends.
Comment by happyfeet on 10/30 @ 8:20 pm #
I think means are a lot important don’t get me wrong. I just miss her sometimes and it was nice to see her today.
Comment by happyfeet on 10/30 @ 8:22 pm #
Just to say hi before the dirty socialists ruin everything and I get bitter and resentful.
Comment by JS on 10/30 @ 9:20 pm #
Rick is a douchebag. All he’s doing is going for the “Notice me! Please!!” thing. Jerk *ff
Comment by happyfeet on 10/30 @ 9:24 pm #
I agree, JS. It’s a pompous affectation that he thinks he has some sort of keen observey cred where his view is extremely important too though I think. What I mean is it mostly was just to say hey Commentary chick I can so hang with you. Me I didn’t feel it. He basically said that if Baracky gets more votes than McCain he’s gonna darn well win this thing. Brilliance thy name is… not Rick Moran.
Comment by McGehee on 10/31 @ 10:05 am #
When people say “soul-searching” I almost invariably hear “navel-gazing.”
And fuck “memes.” Try ideas.
