Mika: "Palin is not qualified" Joe Scar upset: "Unfair Media"
Edited on Mon Oct-06-08 09:48 AM by Roberto1223
This morning on RNC Joe, Mika Brzinski said that whereas Sarah Palin was able to hold her own reading from her notes in her basement-low expectations VP Debate, she has floundered with unrehearsed interviews, citng the Gibson and Couric interviews. One of her guests agreed saying: "Can you imagine if McCain is elected President and dies three months into his term, do you really think that Sarah Palin is qualified to steer the economy and guide the direction of the country?" Mika said: "No". Joe Scarborough was upset because he believes that Sarah Palin is "brilliant and smart" and the media has been savaging her, including SNL, for not answering the questions whereas Joe Biden gets a free pass for not answering Palin's questions in the VP debate that Biden accused Obama "of not been ready to be President" and "not supporting the troops".
Furthermore, Scarborough said that McCain is in deep trouble "if he is fighting in the reddest state of Nebraska". It looks like that there is meltdown in Morning RNC since Mika has had enough of Sarah and is ready to throw her under the bus, if she has not done already.

1. For once, Mika is right. Palin's not qualified.
I've wondered if she feels she has to be 'unbiased' because her dad consulted with Obama.

4. Mika said last week she was giving Palin a chance to prove herself in the debate
In Mika's eyes, Palin failed the challenge and it looks as though she's back on the Democratic train for the time being.

2. Rethugs finally realizing Obama is likely going to win absent some
HUGE event to turn the tide. Obama is holding steady at 50% now with only 29 days left. If McCain doesn't do something to drastically change the numbers in two weeks...he's going to lose on Nov. 5 most likely.

3. What's Joe talking about?
Biden came right back at Palin saying that McCain voted against the exact same bill because it had a timeline.

5. Ever since McBoogieman attacked Mika on National Tv as "Obama supporter" she has developed some
semblance of a spine

6. Hey, Joe - how does it feel like getting away with murdering your intern?

You, know, the one found DEAD from a head wound IN YOUR CONGRESSIONAL OFFICE?!

That should shut him up...

8. What is unfair is how the media hasn't totally ripped Sarah and Johnny to shreds
This is ridiculous--Absurd, as Matt Damon stated.

10. Biden was the one not answering questions?
LOL...he must be on something. Palin is the person who has gotten a free pass from the media. Palin screwed up easy questions that were given to her by Katie Couric. Nobody is really questioning her on Troopergate. Nobody got an answer as to why her daughter got the choice to have a child but that she doesn't feel anyone else should have that same choice. And nobody pushed her to really defend idea that living near Russia and "running" Alaska's national guard isn't foreign policy experience. She hasn't gotten the treatment that any other politician would have gotten.

11. STFU, Joe. Where was your concern about the "unfair media" when you were
running video clips of Rev. Wright 24/7?

The media is going easy on her, Joe. Rather than give her free air time to spew her unchecked lies, the media should completely ignore her until she faces the press in a press conference.

You suck, Joe. So glad I stopped watching your shitty show last March. :P
