John Nolte @NolteNCCountry would be much better off if our media was as tough, demanding on Obama as they are Christie. If only to force this kind of action

HE IS STILL TALKING
it's fuckin awesome really. the right-wing twitter spin is "THIS is how you do an apology press conference. answer EVERYBODY'S questions. no 'no further questions.' just answer until there are none"
the underrated a spin is "wow this dude loves to hear himself talk"

Gov McGreevey rather sleazily used coming out of the closet as a way to smother questions about favors for his boytoy (and skip outta Trenton).
but that scandal wasn't as fun bcz he was a thin Democrat

his problem is that the right wing of the republican party is against him and he won't get the nomination, right? am i wrong to suspect he would own in a presidential campaign though?

the right wing of the republican party was against john mccain and mitt romney
― iatee, Thursday, 9 January 2014 19:19 (ten years ago) link
he won't get the nomination because he's an asshole and comes off like one not because of his politics or this scandal
― iatee, Thursday, 9 January 2014 19:20 (ten years ago) link
who's gonna get the nomination though
― combination hair (underrated aerosmith bootlegs I have owned), Thursday, 9 January 2014 19:23 (ten years ago) link
I have no idea, but I expect the nominating process to be hilarious sad and scary (ie just like last time only moreso)
