Chuck Todd: Choosing Condi Rice as his V.P. would "fix (Romney's) problem with women"

[Amerigo Vespucci]

Just now on Hardball.

Holy SHIT, Chuckie...maybe you'd better stick with the White House soup of the day.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

12. "And curse Chuckie Todd, he is such a stupid git..."

"I'm Dr. Winston O'Boogie, and I approve of this message."

[roguevalley]

37. he is such a self loving ape man. What a tool.

[kentuck]

2. Sometimes Chuck is out of touch...

Soup of the day?

[Amerigo Vespucci]

15. Every morning on his show.

That's his big "moment," when he tells you what the White House chef is serving that day, and he makes some kind of witty little comment. He knows that many find the segment to be stupid and that only encourages him.

[Fawke Em]

3. Surely he was joking.

Not only would it not do a thing about "fixing" Romney's problem with women, it also would alienate the religious nuts in the base once they find out she's a lesbian.

[Amerigo Vespucci]

16. Absolutely not

He said it with a straight face and no trace of irony whatsoever. It was another guest on Tweety's "panel" who acknowledged that Condi would bring a considerable amount of "Bush baggage" with her.

[RZM]

4. Not likely

Not only that, but it would unnecessarily connect him with Bush, giving the Obama campaign another angle of attack. I find it hard to believe Chuck Todd really believes any of this. No Republican strategist worth his/her salt would seriously suggest picking Condi Rice.

5. I can't imagine how any of the dubya gang would attract any voters.

Ms. Mushroom Cloud should be sitting in a dark cell somewhere with Cheney, Rumsfeld and the rest of that group.

[A-Long-Little-Doggie]

6. That made me LOL

Good one Chuckie!

[JoePhilly]

7. Chuck hosted an infomercial for Connie Mack (R-crazy) earlier today.

It was supposed to be an interview.

Toad asked a question ... and then Mack answered a question that was only asked in his own head. Then he rambled on ... talking point after talking point ... as Chuck stuttered in a sad attempt to regain control.

At one point Chuckie asked a question and Mack actually said ... I'm not interested in that ... and then he went on for 2 minutes, as Chuck sat there like a prop. Mack when unchallanged at any point in the infomercial, oppps, I mean interview.

What a clown Toad is.

[hifiguy]

8. Chuck Toad should put down the Repuke

kool-aid. It is further softening an already mushy brain.

[malaise]

9. Still shaking my head

These fuggers are batshit crazy

[The Magistrate]

10. The Chuckster Should Know Better, Sir

http://www.signorile.com/2007/09/condis-best-friends-yesterday-on-show-i.html

The 'moral majority' base would never stand for it....

[nadinbrzezinski]

18. Now that is the demographic that it would hurt

Romney with. But with women, it actually would help.

[The Magistrate]

20. He Will Not Be Getting Much Over 40% There Anyway, Ma'am

No matter what he does. This divergence is driven by policy, not atmospherics, and he cannot change the policy even if he wanted to: he is not in charge of it, it is in the hands of the wing-nuts in Congress and state legislatures.

[nadinbrzezinski]

22. Depends on what he does, it might be closer

but in reality this election was the Republicans to lose and so far they are doing a smashingly good job at that.

[Fresh_Start]

11. We should encourage this thought process

especially as flawed as it is.

[crazylikafox]

13. Clueless....

[IcyPeas]

14. she's not very good at reading memos

that state osama bin laden is going to fly planes into the world trade center. other than that........

[nadinbrzezinski]

17. Actually he is correct, to a point

since REPUBLICAN women who are having issues right now will see her as a progressive choice. That is one way to diminish the gender gap.

Of course I am not looking at this through partisan eyes where I would and do have issues with Condy, but hard analysis of what it would do with SOME of the electorate. In that sense she is the best choice.

The rest, well except Portman (who?) hurt Romney with that demographic.

[spanone]

19. chuck is so wrong so often, it's comedic

[ecstatic]

21. Go for it, Willard! nt

[Hugabear]

23. Sarah Palin has already lowered the bar so low, that anybody Romney picks will be an improvement

Well, just about anybody...

[karynnj]

24. Didn't that work for McCain .......

[Ecumenist]

25. lol!! Okay, you keep thinking that Chuckie boy! Like I said, republicans would use white men in

black face if they thought it would pull in more black voters. LOL!! CONDIE RICE?

[sabrina 1]

26. Well, if he thinks a war criminal would make a good VP?

[MichiganVote]

27. Hardly. None of the women I know like her. Even fewer men.

[all american girl]

28. Didn't Sarah Palin teach these boys anything

we need to let the boys go play in the sand lot and let the women tell them how women will vote...

[larkrake]

29. Condi is big Oil, and part of the war criminal gang

[Politicalboi]

30. Any woman will do Chuck?

Aside from being a war criminal, she is also a lesbian, so there's that too. Ain't gonna happen.

[toddwv]

31. The right-wing doesn't think that it has a problem with women.

Their media tells them that it's Obama that has problems with women...lol.

[lunatica]

32. It wouldn't help him a bit with this woman

Or, I imagine with any Democratic woman.

Haven't they figured out yet that they can't buy the women's vote with just any woman as VP?

[Downtown Hound]

33. LOL. And McLame choosing Sara Palin was supposed to win over disgruntled Hillary Clinton supporters

Worked like a charm, didn't it? Snicker.

[progressoid]

34. I wouldn't doubt if she's already being considered as a possibility.

[lsewpershad]

35. really chucky?????

[redqueen]

36. Starting to think he says stupid crap for the attention. nt

[Horse with no Name]

38. Oh Fuckie...just shut up. Really.

Who was it that gave him his career? He certainly doesn't deserve it.

[calimary]

39. Oh Dear God, contradicta?
