The Rude Pundit: Quotes That Make the Rude Pundit Want to Head Butt James Carville
"(T)he Hillary of May 2008 is radically different from the Hillary of two months ago, much less the one of last year, or of eight years back. And this one (at least till the nomination is settled) has some traits the right wing can love."

-From Noemie Emery's latest column in The Weekly Standard

And, a little later in the same column:
"She's running a right-wing campaign. She's running the classic Republican race against her opponent, running on toughness and use-of-force issues, the campaign that the elder George Bush ran against Michael Dukakis, that the younger George Bush waged in 2000 and then again against John Kerry, and that Ronald Reagan--'The Bear in the Forest'--ran against Jimmy Carter and Walter F. Mondale. And she's doing it with much the same symbols...And better--or worse--she is becoming a social conservative, a feminist form of George Bush."

Moral of the story: What one must lose in order to win is sometimes not worth the price of playing.

Obviously Late, But an Aside Here to Anti-Obama Spammers
Yeah, yeah, it's already late for posting. More later.

However, here's a word to some recent anti-Obama spammers who have been inundating the Rude Pundit with breathless "lookie here" crap about Barack Obama, sent to charming addresses like "douchebagsforbarack@fuckyou.com" or whatever and BCC'd around: Sending out things like Paul Krugman's columns ain't gonna change our minds. Do you think we don't read that? Do you think that we don't know that Obama voted for gas tax relief as a legislator? Do you think that we came to these conclusions about candidates without reading? Do you think we don't continue to read and question and re-affirm or change?

In other words, the Rude Pundit would be pretty piss poor at this whole bloggery thing if you were honestly surprising him. You got a picture of Obama enjoying getting fucked by Pat Robertson or some such shit, send that along and then we'll talk.

6. Needless to say, I didn't post that one ...
the general rule is that if there is no Rude posting, it's cuz' it's too rude and editing would make it 3 sentences long.
