Said Said Said
July 13th, 2007A couple of Republicans (most specifically Mike Huckabee) are doing battle with filmmaker Michael Moore. Huckabee said, “Moore’s a big fat guy. I used to be a big fat guy. It’s people like us that cause insurance prices to bloat in imitation of us.” Moore’s producer said, “He just wants his poll numbers to bloat.” I said, “Yeah, and it’s probably the wrong way to go about it. Poor Mike Huckabee might be the only worthy candidate in the Republican field.” Rudy Giuliani said:
“If you try to do socialized medicine, a la Hillary Clinton, John Edwards, Barack Obama or Michael Moore, you’re going to end up with a disaster.”
I said: I see what you did there! You are slick, you clever rascal! But hey, listen. You’ve got much bigger problems to deal with. You see, the largest firefighter’s union just issued a video attacking your handling of the September eleventh attacks, and they’ve got truth and drama on their side, to boot. Now I don’t know if you noticed it or not, Rudy, but you have absolutely no credentials — Republican or otherwise — aside from, “I did a good job on 9/11.” The truth is you did, but not really, and it definitely shouldn’t make you President.
And you know what? I think this’ll be his undoing. This is why I prefer Republican strategists to Democratic strategists. Republicans will rip your strengths apart and leave you standing there. Democrats? They’ll take it when it’s given them and refuse to dish it out because they’re afraid of releasing the news that they had a lower GPA than the President in College. And yes, I am looking at you, Senator Kerry.
