I'll Have What Annie Oakley Is Having

Jon Stewart: Senator Clinton completed her transformation with the Red State Candidates Oath. Remember you're being graded on buzz words.

Senator Clinton: Someone goes to a closed-door fund-raiser in San Francisco and makes comments that do seem elitist, out-of-touch, and, frankly, patronizing.

Jon Stewart: Closed-door? San Francisco? Elitist? My sources tell me he was drinking a mint julep, wearing ass-less chaps while fucking the New York Times.


Translation of the question asked Obama: Why can't you seem to make any headway among voters who on the face of things have no reason to vote for your opponent, since their loss of jobs and industries are related to the free trade policies covered by her “35 years of experience” and since her chief political strategist is getting paid to lobby for a Free Trade Agreement with Columbia?

Translation of the answer offered by Obama: I'm black; they're bigots.

Obama says he was less artful in his response than he should have been. All things considered, I think his response was as artful as could be expected.

But at least it gave us a chance to watch Senator Clinton morph into a gun-toting, Bible-thumping, beer-swilling Archie Bunker (complete with dingbat spouse). I don't have anything against guns or religion or beer or blue-collared bigots (um…), but tell me people of the Intrawebs, why would a Democrat vote for someone like that?
