Is it just me, or Pat Buchanan is terrified at the idea of an Obama presidency?

[Colobo]

Dude seems to be scared to death about the prospect of a black man being president.

[TwilightGardener]

1. He is. He's shitting his pants.

[loveangelc]

2. yes, imo he is a racist and would absolutely hate it if Obama won the nomination

and then the presidency. he seems to love complimenting hillary and anything having to do with hillary. its quite sad.

[bidenista]

6. i suspect that would change as soon as the GE got going

Can't see Buchanan as a Clinton-backer.

[K Gardner]

3. Katz, he has been mortified ALL NIGHT. It is absolutely astounding the way he has been

pushing Hillary all week and is now saying "the Clinton strategy of race-baiting WORKED and they'll continue to use it". He is just vitriolic and needs to be wherever Tweety is.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

4. I just saw Pat Buchanan laughing in disbelief at someone thinking Obama can win the nomination

[DB1]

11. So do agree with him? Just curious.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

15. I agree with his disbelief at the idea that Obama can win the nomination

[Colobo]

18. Pat and you are in for a great surprise then.

[DB1]

31. How can a true Democrat not believe that any of our 3 could win????

We have hands down 3 superior candidates to any Repub. I have to stop now before I turn nasty and get my post deleted.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

38. I think Obama can beat Huckabee, Clinton can beat all, Edwards can beat Huckabee

[cali]

14. are you sure you're not just suffering from some delusion?

there is help for you. somewhere. i hope.

[polichick]

5. He talks as if he's on the Clinton payroll. nt

[DB1]

7. Pat Buchanan is a died in the wool white supremist.

[mcctatas]

8. Well duh...

The only thing worse would be a gay black woman (to a throwback mouth breather like sweaty old pat)

[pearl]

13. I wish to god

MSNBC wouldn't choose to have wingnuts commenting on a dem primary.

[BringBigDogBack]

9. Not just you

I'd posted that in a few other threads. He sounds crazy. I don't think Ive ever heard him that desperate, and that's saying something.

[DJ13]

10. He's a diehard Republican

They've been planning on running against Hillary for years, and they're afraid of Obama as he draws the independants and the more moderate Republicans to him like a moth to a flame.

The GOP isnt prepared for that kind of candidate.

[Exultant Democracy]

12. Well I have to say Pat is right about what he thinks Clinton was trying to do today.

The question is did Clinton succeed. I hope that it backfires on him but the fact is both Bill and Pat are pretty smart guys and this race is still far from over.

[Proud2BAmurkin]

20. I see it as a difference in experience and not letting anti Clinton feelings turn you giddy

That's what he was laughing at

[Exultant Democracy]

25. Do you agree with Pat that Bill's use of the Race card is going to help on super tuesday?

I hope it backfires but we will find out next month.

[silverweb]

16. I hope so.

The times are a-changin' -- and Pat is being left behind along with all the other bigoted old farts.

His time is over. He's being discarded as pitiable and irrelevant.

[Tulkas]

17. Yep

[BeyondGeography]

19. It's not just you...he is irrational on the topic

[Sarah Ibarruri]

21. What's he afraid of? (I'm trying to get some hope here) nt

[suston96]

22. Oh fer cryin out loud - Buchanan is just opinionating about what happened and why....

[tularetom]

23. he was having a shit fit that 25% of the whites in SC voted for Obama

And when I say shit fit, I'm not exaggerating. He was squealing, his voice rose about 3 octaves, my wife asked from the other room "who's that woman screaming on the TV?"

He's not gonna take it well if Obama is the nominee.

Buchanan thinks he's some sort of southern good ol boy even if he's never been south of DC in his life.

[sandnsea]

27. 50% of the under 30 white vote

went for Obama. What is he going to do when that sinks in.

[tularetom]

30. maybe he'll go home and fall on his Robert E Lee sword replica

after he puts on his sheet and pointy hood.

[sandnsea]

24. I've thought that for a while

That and his complete hysteria over "si se pueda", and that anyone who aligns themself with that movement is basically a traitor. I imagine there are a lot of old white men who don't know what to make of this election.

[AnnieBW]

26. He's made a career off of Clinton-bashing

He sees his income (and sis's) going into the toilet if Hillary doesn't win.

[Catherine Vincent]

28. Buchanan is basically a racist.

He just has that look.

[Nimrod2005]

29. Racist sexist mother fucker, I hope he get RULED by a black man and a woman!!!

[milkyway]

32. Buchanan assumes all white people are a closet rascist like himself.

[Kahuna]

33. He is. nt

[jbnow]

34. Ever since Iowa and republicans

don't want to face him

MTP Michele Norris from All things considered

MS. NORRIS: When you're on the ground, also, you really hear the Republican operatives. I mean, this is a conversation that I actually heard in South Carolina talking about how much they really want a Hillary Clinton victory.

I mean, they actually will talk openly about bringing Barack Obama down a few notches because they want to run against Hillary.

They don't hide wanting base to rally against Clkinton but they especially fear Obama when they see him at a rally. They don't want him on a roll if they have to face him

Why Republicans Fear ObamaI

January 22, 2008 11:11 AM
f he performs against the GOP like he has against Hillary in South Carolina, there could be blood in the water.

Columbia, South Carolina — I went to Barack Obama’s rally here, on Sunday night, with a Republican friend who had never seen the Illinois senator in action before. Watching the crowd of more than 3,000 fill up the convention center, watching the people send up waves of energy to Obama, and watching him play off that energy in a speech that was one of the best political performances anyone has seen this year, my Republican friend said, simply, “Oh, s—t.” He recalled the scene from Jaws, in which the small seaside town’s sheriff realizes how big the shark he’s tracking truly is, and says, “We’re gonna need a bigger boat.” What my friend didn’t have to say was that he was deeply worried that Republicans just don’t have a bigger boat.

[Robbins]

35. Buchanan

Am I am the only one who is sick and tired of him.How can someone claim that this Is win for the
Clintons.Scarbough Is more objectabe than him.

[Bright Eyes]

36. Pat Buchanan is a racist.

Long before the primaries began.

[Avalux]

37. He is. Buchanan is a racist.

The poor guy is actually stumping for Clinton (whom he hates) because of it.

[angie_love]

39. Yeah

I was shocked at how Pat was up Clintons ass all night today. He really wants them to win.

[LowerManhattanite]

Ding!

Somebody gets it! :)

[PondoNavyNuke]

40. It's just you. Pat is afraid of nothing. He's nuts.
