Rendell Says College Kids "Drink The Kool-Aid" Of Obama Speeches

Appearing with a group of college students on Fox News over yesterday, Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell said that a lot of young people "drink the Kool-Aid" of Obama's speeches, prompting the reporter to say "you're suggesting that they're being suckered."

Watch Rendell talk about how youth are responding to Obama, and watch some of the students push back:

As opposed to buying the bullshit Clinton is selling.

[BlueAsh]

If only he uses words as a weapon!

Voting in Pa. started a few hours ago, and there are already reports of voting fraud, incl. paper ballots *without* Obama's name on them.

[LivingStardust]

And anyone following politics for more than 4 months knows that every word that comes out of Rendell's mouth is pure unadulterated crap.

[Livvy]

oh by all means Mr. Rendell lets tell college kids they are not wanted in the democratic party. Who needs a next generation?

[javaman]

it doesn't take a genius to figure out then that the repukes need to change the flavor of theirs.

[Grunty1]

The fact the Hillary and Company always have to go on Fox News to spew this garbage really says it all, doesn't it?

[huffhuffpass]

I can actually picture Gov.Rendell busting through a wall at Fix News wearing a red suit shouting "Oh Yeah".

[DebofMD]

That is funny.

Rendell is an idiot.

[lennix]

He is trying to bully those kids, he is kinda sad.

[bratzilla]

What arrogance, bright and young college students. How insulting, Interrupt and try to stuff that propaganda down those kids throat. What a jerk.

[AlwaysFairDem]

How insulting can Randell can get to the future of this country??

[SuperBunny]

Rendell looks like a cross between a used car salesman and a mobbed up union boss.

I would trust those college kids over this old comb-over blow hard, any day.

Obama certainly doesn't have the substance to allow him to, say, play saxophone on Arsenio Hall. Now that takes a real seasoned politician.

[Kim445588]

College students are like small states, unimportant and don't matter. (According to the Clinton camp)

Talk about drinking kool-aid, she can't win you idiot.

[eddiestardust]

Kim,

When you are in college you think you know everything, just after graduation, you think you know everything too. About 5-7 years after graduating you begin to realize that life is not as rosy and is often harder than you expected it to be. Another 10 years or so later you realize that you might just have one answer but that's it.

It happens to everyone Kim and it will happen to you to...it's called LIFE!:)

[gomonkeygo]

eddiestardust:

But LIFE doesn't have to make you BITTER!

Go, Kim445588!

From an older person who has had LIFE happen and lived to tell.

[Thereandback]

What the hell brought on that rant, eddie?

Do you deny Kim445588's proposition that the Clinton camp has discounted college students and the small states? Do you deny that Obama's winning status (pledged delegates, popular vote, number of states won) really can't be undone by Clinton without the *incredibly* unlikely event of superdelegates opting to overturn the choice of Democratic voters?

What does your narrow viewpoint of life have to do with Kim's comments?

(And before you go jumping into another irrelevant rant, I'm 50. Been there, done that.)

[bellecloche]

Why don't we just up the voting age to when they experience "life," hmmm?

They're not smart enough to know who to vote for at home, but they're the first to fight in whatever war Clinton votes for...

[peggio]

Which is just one more nail in the cynicism coffin of the Clintons.
I was an idealist in college and I'm an idealist now. I'm the generation of the Clintons and ashamed that I ever voted for him.
Despite Shrillary and company the truth is the truth. College students and all youth are our future. Obama is our future. The Clintons are our past and it has become a dark place in which to dwell.
