Geraldine Ferraro ... WTF?

[LuckyTheDog]

Why is Geraldine Ferraro helping John McCain?

[olkaz]

1. Because she's a lunatic?

Pretty self-explanatory. She's a fox news failure, wanting 15 more minutes.

[slick8790]

21. That's pretty much exactly what I was going to say.

Also I was going to add that she's so fixated on a woman, any woman, becoming president that she ignores anything else. Maybe she's the one Obama meant when he talked about people being bitter.

[Seeker30]

30. Rev Wright sure is a swell guy though

[Brundle_Fly]

2. yup she' off her nut.

Hillary is going to have to renounce her now, or let the party become divided with GF's instructions.

[anonymous171]

3. Good. Last time she was involved in an election, well you know what happened.

Just ask Walter Mondale.

[Colobo]

4. She's what's wrong with the Democratic Party.

[sniffa]

5. Jellybean needs to be hauled off by the men in the white suits

She hasn't been the same since her stroke.

[OzarkDem]

39. Jellybean?

Sounds like Obama supporters have finally gone off the deep end.

Not only are they incapable of discussing any issues, they now babble incoherently.

[sfaprog]

6. Because she misses the days of coat-hangers in the alleys

[Deja Q]

13. Thanks to menopause, do you think she'd care about hangers any longer?

[Bucky]

22. Hey, this isn't a very HypnoToadish joke.

The point of coming to the zoo is the laugh at the animals, not act like them.

Geeze, did you really just stoop to telling a menopause zinger? Had anyone but you posted this, I'd've alerted on the mods.

[QueenOfCalifornia]

28. as a woman

going into the first part of menopause - I have to say HypnoToad did not offend me. I think it was just a little off but not all that mean....

I consider my hot flashes to be a mini vacation to the tropics.

(But I did alert on him though)

:rofl:

[Bucky]

32. You have to understand, HypnoToad is like my Jeremiah Wright. I put up with his crap...

because his posts in the Lounge bring me closer to God.

Amen.

[proud2BlibKansan]

38. Well I am past child bearing age but I am very concerned about Roe v Wade

It's about a whole lot more than abortion.

[HiFructosePronSyrup]

7. She's joined the Zell Miller wing

of the nut house.

[newmajority]

8. What did the old racist say now?

:shrug:

[americanstranger]

9. Damn, the comments over there are BRUTAL.

"Geraldine Ferraro is really making herself popular. She is part of the failed, pathetic, spineless, gravy-sucking Democratic Party of yesteryear.

Obama will bring change. People like Ferraro have gotten so happy being losers that a winner like Obama scares them and makes them feel inadequate.

Time for you to exit now, Geraldine, you've done enough damage."

Ouch.

[Arugula Latte]

15. And some are just delusional ... like "Leslie," who thinks a write-in campaign will do the trick!

If ALL Hillary Clinton supporters WRITE HER IN, and there WILL BE A MASSIVE MOVEMENT to do this, SHE WILL OBLITERATE BOTH McCain and Obama.

This is the HRC supporters' NUCLEAR OPTION, and it will work, because most of us will ignore any attempt of Hillary's to rally us behind Obama WHEN ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS WRITE HER IN TO WIN.

So I suggest the DNC superdelgates consider their options, AND THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE MAP, VERY carefully.

:rofl:

Yeah, Leslie, you go ahead and do that...

[americanstranger]

25. I saw that. Poor Leslie.

Wonder what her DU screen name is? :rofl:

- as

[Liberal Veteran]

10. She's angry because black people have all the advantages in our society....

....and white folks are so oppressed.

:sarcasm:

[Arugula Latte]

11. She's a lunatic racist now.

So strange to think I used to admire that freak.

[IronLionZion]

12. I love how she fails to back up her assertion. It's like she's a DUer. nt

[Labors of Hercules]

14. I'm gonna laugh my ass of when he Chooses a woman to be his VP.

Sexist my ASS!!!

[LakeSamish706]

16. This is when Dean and other big dog Democrats need to step in and start...

Throwing these losers from the party.. This shit has gone on long enough and needs to be ended before they succeed in destroying it.

[A-Schwarzenegger]

17. HOLY CRAP!!!

I have one more HOLY CRAP!!! to give out today.

[Raine]

18. I used to really like her

it's sad & disallusioning to see what she's become. :-(

[Bucky]

19. I assume Sen Clinton will have little trouble corralling Ferraro by the convention.

Clinton will get something out of the convention. She's won something around 47-49% of the delegates--that gives her incredible bargaining power. I assume she's smart enough to use it. We've got a big tent (one reason why we fight so passionately). Ferraro will, some time in the next two months, get over herself and jump on the bandwagon.

I say give her the time and space to do so.

[David Zephyr]

20. This bigot, this out-of-the-closet bigot and McCain supporter is Clinton's gift.

Bill and Hillary's surrogate and former campaign advisor.

[Colobo]

23. I would love Barack Obama to call Geraldine and invite her

to have lunch with him and Michelle. Kill this racist loon with kindness.

[Bucky]

27. Not a racist, not a loon, just a little too wound up. But yes, you have the right solution.

I remember how Hillary handled Newt Gingrich's mama when Katy Couric got the older lady to call Clinton a bitch. Hillary invited her into the White House for tea. You kill boneheaded anger with civility.
For all Ferraro's done for this party, she deserves at least this much.

[Ian David]

24. Because, as Randi Rhodes correctly said, Geraldine Ferraro is a ... n/t

[Leopolds Ghost]

26. People like Ferraro have always been Blue Dog Quislings, ever since the mid-80s.

Is we or is we not her security-conscious, suburban, white, weak-kneed,
upper-middle-class constitchency?

[nichomachus]

29. She's a broken-down has been -- or maybe "never was"

And she's been harboring resentment ever since she got beat. This is her chance to "get even," which kind of fits her role as a Mafia wife.

[styersc]

31. I guess calling her a bigot hurt her feelings.

Obama doesn't need old school white voters anyway.

[NJmaverick]

33. She is an unabashed racist, I doubt she can bring herself to vote for a man who is half black

[WillyT]

34. One Word: Bitter

And not at all helpful to the next woman presidential cadidate.

:shrug:

[progressoid]

35. That's exactly the word I was about to use - Bitter. eom

[eridani]

36. Because ending women's reproductive rights is "feminist"? n/t

[ruby slippers]

37. personally, I think she is jealous of Hillary....
