If you guys want to get stupid, lets get stupid
This hand shake stuff is the most desperate thing I've seen in awhile, but if some of you want to talk about it, lets talk about it.




Look at this picture. Its quite clear that Hillary has already passed Obama up for a handshake. The only way to get to Kennedy is to bypass Obama.


Jesus this is dumb.

42. parsed like the face on Mars. I suppose that face snubbed Hillary
too. I think, probably given everyone's fatigue after today, they are trying to be big about things. I also think that some people hate confrontation and feel embarrassment about how stupid campaigns are and what happens in them. Could be why he's turning away. Or he could be looking around for his Schlitz. :+ :+ :+ :+ :+ :+ :+
Goofy faces added in case one needs to know this is an attempt, lame as it is, to inject levity into this fire fight.

7. Precisely
And I can't believe they're making an issue over a handshake either. It is definitely time to pull out the shark.

8. Okay, I'll bite
This may be a stupid question, but why the hell should anyone care if they shook hands? BTW, according to AP, it was Obama who "turned away." As if it matters.

11. I never said the primaries were over, but nice strawman!

12. Sad how these so called Democrats here can only talk about a damn handshake.
Grow the hell up. Yes this young person is saying it. Who cares lets talk about real issues like Iraq, healthcare, and how we are going to help the democrat party win in Nov.

Screw a hand shake in other countries politicians kill and fight each other. I don't care if HRC or BO shake each others hands or not. All they need to do is make sure that Americans are being taken care of.

41. If you get this bent out of shape over a missed handshake that you didn't even see...
then you really don't have room to be calling anyone kid, kid.

33. there is enough friction in this country without going looking for
it- and morbidly or maybe sub-consciously manufacturing it- where it isn't.

I agree Wolsh--

this is Doctorate level stupidity.


Are we going to let the media tell us what we see, when we are all seeing the same thing?- many of us without the negative spin?


screw- that.

Fahrenheit 451 is now.

Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 11:13 PM by sjdnb
oh so much more enlightened? Give me a break ... the sequence of photos makes clear what happened. Not the end of the world, for Obama, but not a shining moment for someone hoping to bring 'hope' and 'change'. And, not saying much for his diplomatic capabilities/tendencies, either.

Given the extent to which elections/candidates are managed, handled, and manipulated (by the M$M and others) it is only in these fleeting moments of unscripted interaction that we might actually get a glimpse of who they are.
