Obama: "If You Believe That, I've Got A Bridge In Alaska To Sell You"

"But now suddenly, John McCain says he is about change, too. He even started using some of my lines. Suddenly he says he wants 'to turn the page.' He had an ad today that he started running that he and Gov. Palin would bring the change that we need. He had this in an advertisement. Sound familiar? Let me tell you something, instead of borrowing my lines he needs to borrow our ideas," Obama said.

He followed up with [a] dig on lobbyists, saying "if you think those lobbyists are working day and night for John McCain just to put themselves out of business, well then I've got a bridge to sell you up in Alaska."

That is an incredibly effective line, it plays wonderfully into thrashing McCain with a smile.

Oh, SNAP!

Bring it, Barack. Bring it and bring it and bring it and bring it.

Now that's campaigning to win. The Repugs have used that bridge line once too often and now it's being used against them very effectively. Now time for 'It's the economy stupid'! Because that's what the braindead electorate needs to understand before we're all standing in soup lines.

What was it in that blathering one-sided diatribe did you like?

Just curious. You may want to read a more balanced opinion.

It doesn't favor either candidate. It just discusses the issues, like the HuffingtonPuffingtonPost should try to do.

Obama and HuffingtonPuffingtonPost are too busy attacking Palin to think about the issues. Sad, honest.y.

Whoa looks like O has the gold! LOL

[elizabethc]

That has to be the best line in this election! If Obama uses that tone more often he will surely win over Independents.
