Seems like a lot of people out there don’t like Republican VP nominee Sarah Palin.
Even John McCain‘s former adviser, Mike Murphy, thinks she’s a joke!
Murphy, who’s also a Time columnist and contributes to MSNBC, was on air with Wall Street Journal columnist and former Reagan speechwriter Peggy Noonan this week. And when anchor Chuck Todd cut to a clip, the three of them began talking, not realizing that a technical glitch was allowing viewers nationwide to listen to their comments LIVE!
Todd was caught saying, “I also think the Palin pick is insulting to Kay Bailey Hutchinson, too.”
While Murphy commented, “Still McCain can give a version of the Lieberman speech to do himself some good.”
And Noonan said, “It’s over.”
But this is when it gets good. Todd then questions, “Yeah, I mean is she really the most qualified woman they could have turned to?
To which Noonan responds, “The most qualified? No! I think they went for this, excuse me, political bullshit about narratives.”
HA!
To which Todd agreed with, “Yeah they went to a narrative,” followed by Murphy’s comment, “I totally agree.”
And it gets funnier, Noonan adds, “Every time the Republicans do that, because that’s not where they live and it’s not what they’re good at, they blow it.”
And Murphy responded with, “You know what’s really the worst thing about it? The greatness of McCain is no cynicism, and this is cynical.”
“This is cynical, and as you called it, gimmicky,” added Todd.
Juciness!
