"This is a campaign on cruise control." Candy Crowley on AC360.
I almost took issue with this, but cnn is showing all the crowds, and how disciplined they are, designed not to make mistakes.

Same speech, Candy? Not so fast: Obama's speech yesterday was a barn burner, was way better than McCain's anemic one.

1. I think, deep down, Candy is trying to make Obama's campaign "Deweyesque"
At least, that's probably what she's hoping.

4. That's a pretty big fucktoy.
Roll her around in flour, look for the wet spot.

I would like to apologize, in advance.

Tom

6. It is important to sexualize all of our criticism toward women, lest they forget their place.

But you forgot to make fun of her weight & looks, and to suggest that she's smelly. Please correct this oversight.

19. Relax
I have also repeatedly called Chuck Todd a republican fucktoy. In fact you seem to be the one assigning gender to this insult not me. Personally I never for a moment thought about her size or looks. Its funny how some things become a rorschach test huh?

5. Yeah Crowley is starting to show her bias a little bit
She's hoping for a horse race but is having trouble rationalizing how to get one.

7. Candy Crowley at times has seemed "burnt out".
I do not watch her as much as before. She has seemed so tired at times. I wondered if she is just very tired of covering the campaign. I remember her saying at the convention, she had under- estimated Obama's appeal. I too thought that it was off for her to say "same speech".

8. And that's a problem because... ?
They have a winning formula. There's no reason to screw it up now, just for the sake of the media having some drama to report.

18. Candy hates Obama and probably only likes covering the campaign so that she can knife O in the back
each night with her snarky reports.

Obama is not on "cruise control". Hell, he spoke with a freezing rain today, one of about 3 campaign stops. His crew is all over the country speaking in various swing states. He has a 30 minute TV spot tomorrow, will be on the Daily Show, and will be interviewed by Rachel on Thursday. Then there's all those campaign rallies each day. How on earth is this "cruise control".

I'll be so glad when this is over and I don't have to see her passive/aggressive Obama hit pieces anymore.
