I hope to god the Dem side has Mitt Romney's

[pointblank]

ASS on tape with a few salt lake city hookers ... because we are going to need to grow some big BALLS to counter this edwards shit.

I mean the timing couldn't be better. I am fucking impressed with their tenacity...nothing shits down a dem campaign like a good shameful scandal...The fucking edwards thing is ALL over CNN. Forget the fact that Russia is at war with Georgia and the US economy is in the toilet....EDWARDS HAS A LOVE CHILD! (allegedly)

I want off. stop the ride.

1. Get over it, stop the ride, you're full of poop.

Obama has nothing to do with Edwards. Will that disappoint you? :eyes:

2. You're right, this is a terrible stain on Obama's campaign

When you figure out why a candidate long out of the race, with no serious talk of being in an Obama administration in any way, who isnt even a public office holder, should impact our nominee in any way, clue the rest of us in, okay?

4. I wish

I had the faith you do.

Do you deny that this will have an impact on the independants?

I simply want the same outrage over the much more outrageous shit the repukes get away with.

Maybe I am posting in the wrong place. I once knew of a DU with some....

8. Do you deny that this will have an impact on the independants?

Lets see......the choice comes down to a Democrat with no connection to another Democrat who had an affair, or a 71 year old angry Republican who represents another round of failed Republican policies.

Nope, I have more faith that the independents are just as sick of getting screwed over by the last 8 years of Republican failures as we are.

3. Since Edwards isn't the nominee or the running mate,

and in fact sucked wind back during primary season, Edwards could be the father of illegitimate half-alien triplets by an adulteress from Alpha Centauri and it wouldn't matter a good goddamn to the presidential race.

Sorry to burst your concern bubble and all, of course...

5. i don't think it will hurt us. nt

6. I hope you are right my friend

I am just easily scared shitless by the machine that got that retard bs elected TWICE.

call me crazy

7. Puh-leeze! Edwards, schmedwards . . .

He's not running for anything. How can they possibly sustain this thing for much longer than 24 hours? Obama has gone on vacation. (Good timing there!)

The MSM is acting completely in character with their high school (actually, middle school) level of development: "I saw Paris! Obama saw France! Fox News saw Johnnie's UN-DER-PANTS!"

Oy.

Two possible outcomes, both to the advantage of dems: 1) this burns out immediately and disappears as it should; 2) through some unimaginable mechanism they keep this dead horse on public view for a few more days of flogging -- spending their (tottering) credibility with the voter even more, thereby making the next anti-Obama hysteria even sillier than it would otherwise be.

IOW, chill. We don't need hookers to sink Romney. He's a twit, and the thought that he'd be president if (when) McCain keels over is enough to send voters screaming in terror away from such a ticket.
