I've never seen a pundit as consistently wrong about everything as Dick Morris. How he continue to get paid is a mystery.
 
 
He became an angry republican after being fired by the democrats which is the type of thing that gives Roger Ailes a raging... (not sure what word would get past the ProgArchive censors LOL).  Ailes lets him have O'Reilly unfinished lunches and sleep under Hannity's desk.

I think the point is that now that they have given their vote to a person who cannot be reelected, he has no reason to pay back his "debt."

Obama really touched many here as he focusses on the microscopic the average citizen rather than the macroscopic. 

He is inspirational. Living in a solidly red state, I have witnessed some genuine despair today, both in person and on social networks, and I wish so much time had not been spent on demonizing. That is my greatest hope from this election: that maybe - just maybe - the Republican party will do some soul searching and maybe they will come to the conclusion that fear and hate is not the way to go, and maybe next election we won't have so many people angry with each other because of which political side they fall on. That is my prayer - that the wounds of partisanship would heal.
The Repub party peddles no more "fear and hate" than your own camp does.  You just choose to ignore it, and like many (not all) liberals, you demonize even as you decry tone.  
100% true Jim.


It's worse than that, he's dead, Jim.

LOL

Its worse than that it's finished Jim!

Libeertarians across the universe, under Starship Obama under Romney's clerk.........

^They could very well be. A very big government lies in its way, though it somehow works for the Brazilian people. They elected a Chavez-like ultra leftist who, once in power, was quite different (in a good way). His successor seems to follow the same path.

Sadly the Amazon jungle will pay.

^Typical populist mentality that has allowed the continent where I come from to "develop" so quickly, even when it has more resources than anybody else. What a shame.

I mean asking for immigration reform is not bad. Asking for reform because "he owes the election" shows why people vote for other people in this country (and many other I would say).

I like how smart and tough he is with guests who aren't answering his questions but that went way too far with his 'thrill up the leg' love of the Pres, I'm truly shocked he would allow himself to utter such things, or worse believe them

Matthews says too many stupid things too often. I didn't like him even when I was somewhat closer to his ideas.

I would've loved to have seen that--   did it actually happen, on Fox or something?   Hope it's posted somewhere.    He's a bigger, fatter idiot that Limbaugh.
In O'Reilly. He said he "undercalculated" the turnout of hispanics and single women but he ended up saying that he's one of few who have made a president be elected so his franchise isn't tarnished

Quantum mechanics rocks.  Wish I had a better understanding of it than I do. 


I wish you had a better understanding of a few other things, too.  Wink


Oh I have an understanding of those things, I just don't happen to agree with you.  Wink

That is a real shame. I need him around to take the reins when I get worn out from arguing.
