Douglas Holtz-Eakin Struggles to Defend McCain Campaign

[skiff7080]

The Big Lie is a propaganda technique. The expression was coined by Adolf Hitler, never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will believe a big lie sooner than a little one; and if you repeat it frequently enough people will sooner or later believe it.

[Xeromoth]

Like the Old Labour party in Britain?.....rationing was a result of the war not party policy and it was carried on by the conservatives for a few years after so get your facts right Chris Matthews.

And ooooooooh the NHS?.........so terrible, except no-one in Britain would vote to ever get rid of it.

[kasule68]

boy was he in for a surprise

[ddrumsfreak]

what a douchebag

[hmmyeah]

That idoit couldn't admit he was wrong and couldn't even explain socialist or socailized medicine. What a contarted bastard. Socialized medicine is when the gov offers every citizen healthcare. Welfare medicine like what us offers now is for the poorest people who have to average 10K or 12K income a year and that is if your single. Congress & gov employees get the same Welfair healthcare as the poor. That idoit can't defend his own parties words no wonder allot of Republicans are angery.

[Alialama1]

hahhahahahahahahahahahahahahah­ahahaha!!!

OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!

[sirdaveysockrocker]

im so sick and tired of repubs acting like obama couldnt be beat. NO it was mccains TONS of weird, odd, old man flubs, sarah palin, wasting time and money in states he knew he' lose, and a decision to run not on what he would do, but how horrible the other guy is, then CHOOSING to make those horrible things ridiculous and stupid. McCain deserved to lose because he ran one of the DUMBEST campaigns in history.

[eskijoe]

did anyone see Fox news? the level of denial was unbelievable. We knew from very early on that Obama was going to win, yet Fox still claimed McCain had a chance, telling us not to believe exit polls. Then when he was announced winner, they started attacking him. Fox news makes me physically sick. "Fair and Balanced" lol that must be a joke.

[MercuryShining]

I know, they're ridiculous! They stopped talking about the election WAY before any other news station, which made me chuckle.

[ILoveGoodFellas]

EX-Fucking-ACTLY, I could point out that the fox and friends guy when talking about the 2000 McCain concession crowd and the 240,000 Obama victory Crowd, he said "OK, both these guys are pulling huge crowds tonight. This election is truly up for grabs.". My jaw dropped.

[geoffds]

Yeah, that was fucked up. I was going back and forth between CNN and MSNBC, but I flipped to Fox News to get their reaction after it was clear Obama would win. They started this fear-mongering garbage about all the scary things that will happen instead of allow this incredible, historical event to soak in.

[Richardgwm]

This man is pure evil.

[givebirthathome]

Who is this guy? There's a longer interview with the CFR, him and Austan Goolsbee, and he shows himself to a real politician more than an economist in that, too.

I don't care if he thinks the McCain campaign went too far, the rest of us do. Nothing was stacked against McCain but what he stacked himself.

In fact, if the Republicans had nominated Ron Paul or Huckabee, or McCain had chosen someone besides Palin, they might have won.

I'm glad they didn't. Welcome President Obama!

[jletts2]

yeah looking back romney, ron paul, and huckabee(minus the religious crap) would have been good choices. had romney or ron paul gotten the nomination i would have had a hard decision to make

[oppesdaman]

Oh, sweet victory!!

I have a new found faith in my country! The people have spoken and they want real change. It's time to put our country back on the right track and to restore our reputation throughout the world.

Now, let's get to work!

[misterogers]

Which party will we vote for if the economy melts down in 4 years?

This last election 3rd parties gave their worst performance in recorded history with less than 2% of the popular vote. No single 3rd party managed to poll more than 1%.

[661metalhead]

enough is enough, the joke is finally over, no more bush please never vote for anothe bush, because that is real bullshit.

[CynicalSavior]

Typical republican.... just don't answer the question, talk about shit totally unrelated to the question and then pretend like you answered the question.

Have you guys figured it out yet that the American people are kind of sick of that shit?

[661metalhead]

hell yeah!!! I am sick of that shit. fuck the republican. they are a bunch of hipocrits.

[evilsinz]

hungry hungry hipocrits

num num num...

[1cman1]

Douglas Holtz-Eakin: "It's still not over."

[kaysandesses]

[mandy6522]

[REDGHOST8888]

[manbearpig5000000]

[kyu012]

[HaloedG]

Game Over. Obama wins.

[tealish]

See! Told you the polls were baloney! All that mainstream media basis skewing the voice of the American people, claiming that Obama was WAY ahead. What rubbish.

Oh what's that? Okay... nevermind...

[PersonalJesus348]

[EriqueB76]

O B A M A 08!!!

[parapara73]

Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a centralized government that often plans and controls the economy. the definition of socialism being one is not communism it is just a way to fight ressecionary stages!!!

[AlienTruth]

Well if Cali, Oregon, and Washingon vote for Obama, its all over. The chance of that happening are pretty damn slim. So yeah, Obama's gonna take this.

[JulienStanford]

He's a total tool... just answer the question.

[PhiloCentinel]

Sarah Palin... lulz.

[Paracropolis]

Didn't even answer the question.

[copcorona]

Yay democracy! We will end this wasteful, inhumane war! Michigan Proposition 1: 60% voted to Allow Medical Marijuana! We will win! We will end the war on drugs!

[JACKtheRIPP3R189]

Campaign cronies NEVER admit when they've done something wrong, never. And the fucker didn't answer the question, he just licked McCain's ass.

[shafiqueps]

uhhh... mccain might as well give up?

Obama definitely has won mccain in terms of electorial votes. Even if mccain wins those states leaning towards him, he still cant make up for 270 votes =.=!

VOTE OBAMA!

[MurasakiYugata]

Good thing he cleared that whole thing up.

[BionicleRaider]

[corbaman]

At this point Mccain has already lost too many battleground states to win, hasn't he?

[JimmBeem]

yahoo has it up. it is 175 to 46 as of right now. in Obamas favor
