Bill Kristol Knocks New York Times, Predicts McCain Win On "Daily Show" (VIDEO)

Bill Kristol knocked his own paper, the New York Times, on "The Daily Show" last night, and repeated his prediction that John McCain will win the White House on Tuesday.

Jon Stewart joked with the error-prone Kristol, who he has mocked before, "You can't look at past performance as a predictor, otherwise you wouldn't be, obviously, still a pundit."

"You're reading The New York Times too much, Jon," Kristol told Stewart, only for Stewart to remind him that he works there. "Oh, it's a very fine newspaper — on one day of the week."

Kristol also predicted that McCain would "win huge," but that even if Barack Obama does pull it off, he ill be a "conventional" president."

Delusional opportunist. He should join Limbaugh, Hannity and all the other right-hatred drama queens.

Then they should visit this a**hole in Wisconsin at the 'Honorary Hall':

Free speech, my a**! Something's wrong with the US Constitution if you can't prosecute these stupid @*§$^ - I'm lost for words!

my problem with dirt_bags like him is that i don't think they are delusional, which would at least be a question of intelligence and have some kind of defense.

i think they're deliberately misleading, attempting to influence.­.. well, let's just say the "less informed" of the electorate­... for personal advantage, or the advantage of their buddies regardless of what the larger good may be.

that, i feel, is indefensible. it ain't misinformation, it's DISinformation.

and it just amazes me that so many people - many of whom seem to be conservative "pundits" - will look into the cameras and sell their soul like an ideological prostitute. a punditute, so to speak.

sickening.

The GOP elite must be scared of the parties "red-neck, red-meat idiotic, glad to be ignorant base'. It's quite striking that the "intellectual -base" of the party is right on target with their shock as the disastrous Palin pick....wh­ast good is someone who's only preaching to the chois when your trying to win over the whole counrty. Experiment failed!..H­illary supporters will support Obama. It's the "Economy Stupid"!

Kristol has been wrong most of the time. Accordingly, I feel very secure now and await the BO landslide.

Guys like Kristol as posterboys for the GOP - and DEMS get tarred with Elitism? Come on!

That Kristol predicts a McCain win is good news!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!­!

...for Obama.

[poeticsinger]

Jon owned him. GREAT JOB Jon!

This neo-con shmuck - why is he still around????

[MLear]

Now I rest confident that Senator Obama's victory is a sure thing. When Mr. Kristol predicts something, the opposite is bound to happen. He is like a compass pointing south.
