Phil Gramm : McCain Supporters ‘Not Economically Illiterate’ and Not Whiners

I knew it. Gramm is still working inside the campaign

“If you’re sitting here today, you’re not economically illiterate and you’re not a whiner, so I’m not worried about who you’re going to vote for,” Gramm said.”
Aaaah yes the continued ###### on the American working man.
Nice to see the old hits are still the favorite hits when it comes to McCain and the GOP.

“New Poll shows that Palin is getting the Youth vote? Seems the Juno scenario helped, along with the fact that Young males find her attractive and interesting.”
Most polls are showing her with 60% never heard of. Got a link or a poll name?

Phil Gramm is an evil disgusting person. He is arrogant, selfish, a lover of money and ignoble in every respect.

What can I say about Ole Phil that hasn’t been said all ready? I just want this jerk to go far gar away and McCains traveling circus needs to fold up the big tent after this week. Watching the repubs slap each other on the backs is pretty sickening.

Strange assumption that people who are “economically literate” vote for perpetuate tax cuts despite the deficits we face.
I think people who are “economically literate” are beginning to seriously question the underpinnings of the conservative economic platform.

There are many hard working Americans who consider themselves Republicans. And there are a lot of us Independents who are watching the Democrats squirm as they watch another race go 50/50. Obama is not all that to all people, but you can’t tell tham that. The DNC made a huge mistake. Maybe they will learn their lesson this time.

I guess if McCain could hire someone who smeared him back in 2000 to work for his current campaign, there is no reason why he would not forgive a friend who said that Americans were whiners.
When a man of principle becomes a man of ambitions, everything can happen.
Just to finish with a touch of humor. Apparently, Ms Palin showed earlier interest in design. She wanted to open a boutique. She decided she would call it “Rouge Cou” which supposedly means “Redneck”.
I guess Obama was right: the only thing Americans can say in french is “Merci beaucoup”. If you can’t translate a simple english word in french, don’t worry, you might still become vice president of the USA.

Mark Whitaker on MSNBC just disclosed that according to McCain’s own timeline that the Palin children were flown into Ohio under the pretense that they would be joining their parents for an anniversary celebration and were not told about the VP announcement.
Secrecy and lies….I give you the John McCain philosophy.

Ruh roh…..Palin’s husband Todd was a registered member of the AIP until 2002
This afternoon, the director of Division of Elections in Alaska, Gail Fenumiai, told TPMmuckraker that Todd Palin registered in October 1995 to the Alaska Independence Party, a radical group that advocates for Alaskan secession from the United States.
Besides a short period of a few months in 2000 when he changed his registration to undeclared, Todd Palin remained a registered member of AIP until July 2002 when he registered again as an undeclared voter.

Gramm & Mary are channeling Kent Brockman.
“And at the cost of being unpopular, I point the finger squarely at you America!”
You are going to own your failures and rhetoric Republicans…own it.

Peter – not sure what polls you are reading? National polls are averaging an 8 pt lead….do you realize a 4-5 pt lead is a LANDSLIDE in the electrol bote
Mccain has proven he is NOT mentally qualified to be POTUS, he has gone for the hail mary and his new slogan is
McCain/Palin = POLITICS FIRST, COUNTRY LAST

McCain’s economic proposals for continued tax cuts to the rich and no government regulations are vintage Gramm. In 2000, with the Republicans in charge of Congress, Texas Senator Phil “ENRON” Gramm was chair of the Senate Banking Committee. He pushed through the exemption on electronic trading without a Senate hearing. Internal ENRON documents later revealed that ENRON helped write this legislation! With no regulatory interference, ENRON used manipulative trading practices to game the California electricity market and drive up prices across the state. And Gramm’s wife Wendy – as chairwoman of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission – pushed through a key regulatory exemption removing energy derivatives contracts and interest-rate swaps from federal oversight – just what ENRON wanted. She later landed on the ENRON board of directors where she became a member of the audit committee that signed off on another one of ENRON’s fraudulent moves, partnerships that hid the company’s debt. Is this the kind of thinking we want guiding the White House?
