and what does he/she have to do with this post?

obvious to me he wanted to be anyplace else. When Joe went on his rant about how the R's should have had W at the convention, Halperin looked like he and the others had to hold back from laughing out loud..

And I mean that quite literally:

http://gawker.com/5817138/mark-halperin-has-now-called-obama-both-types-of-genitalia

is halpern.

That is all ...

And to edit.

he is SUPPOSEDLY a MAINSTREAM pundit, not recognized or marketed as a "conservative."

after being assured the "kill switch" would bleep it out. Unfortunately for Halperin the producer either didn't hit the switch or there was a technical glitch which allowed "di*k" to go out live.

He's pretty anti-Obama in general so if he's putting stuff like this out then indicators must be getting pretty bad over at Romney HQ.

You could write a book on the major mistakes of the RR campaign. It's amazing how quickly this entire thing went off a cliff.

America seemed to want to give Romney a chance. After all, the economy isn't doing well and many people are hurting. I think they engaged, tuned into the convention and weren't impressed.

I have to laugh. Mitt Romney dedicated his entire convention to humanizing himself and allowing the American people to get to know him. This is a man who has been in the spotlight for quite some time. He ran for President in 2008 and was all over the national stage; and the latest Republican primary gave him untold publicity. Isn't that odd, that after all of that--Romney still has to introduce himself to the country? It's bizarre.

This campaign is a total joke. Many of their campaign talking points have been easily debunked as lies, by independent fact checkers. He won't release his tax returns, and now they refuse to give us details on their tax plan, telling the American people, "We'll let you know our plan after we're elected!".

You couldn't run a more ridiculous campaign if you tried.

Haley probably took that into account when he backtracked from his brand-Obama-in-the-butt comment.

I've watched that before. Usually an unlikable person at work, no matter if someone else makes the same mistake or says the same thing, that one person that is already seen as a loser, is seen as having yet "another" thing wrong with them. Same with politics. Every misstep R/R makes seems like more proof that they're losers.

It's not necessarily unlikeability, either. In a small, rural area where jobs are tight, you are either an insider (family or friend they grew up with) or an outsider (a transplant). If you're an outsider, you never have a chance.

Hell, my supervisor overruled my decision to reject a hemolyzed specimen and then when the doctor came yelling, it became *my* fault I ran the spec! It was also my fault I didn't call him with results when she sent me off to draw an ED because the other tech had disappeared. And it was my fault "we need better communications" when the tech disappeared without telling either of us. It was also *my* fault I "forgot" a spec in the centrifuge because she sent me to the 3rd floor to draw somebody the lab assistant had missed when the spec was spinning.

I'm so pathetic I can only do an 8 hour overnight, unlike her preferred tech (also a man) who has been caught viewing porn on the 'puter, and who they can't let work 2nd shift because he's such a fuck-up he'll screw up the chemistry analyzer, and they have never even considered asking (never mind ordering) to work overnight because then he'd screw up everything.

Hell, my 1st day back after a week off, a doctor came in complaining about somebody in the lab who hung up on somebody in x-ray. Now I hadn't been in for a week and have never spoken to anybody in x-ray, let alone hung up on anybody. But I'll bet *that* was my fault too!

They've cut my hours in half, but I still have a modicum of safety. They can blame me to their hearts content for their disabled janitor friend (with a history of harassing one single woman or another) deciding to fixate on and stalk me around the halls. But the bottom line is I reported the impending problem as soon as a lab assistant told him I was going to have a date with him and gave him personal info about me -- all after I told her in no uncertain terms that I was not looking for dates here/not interested/leave me alone please. And I kept a log of his harassment after that, including the 2 other lab assistants and their supervisor who encouraged him.

So if they are stupid enough to dump me for the man that they hired immediately after being told to cut back, I can march right down to headquarters with my log. There, the lab manager is protected, but not the supervisor who has it in for me and turned on me after I told her friend, the janitor/harasser, to fuck off (when he shoved me into my computer 4 times within a half hour while I was running and resulting 4 critical results on 3 critically ill patients.)

Go ahead, assholes. Fire me. Double-dare ya!

to the shed and did a very good job. Just looking at that man makes me ill.

pants down on the election...he's in this for himself and himself alone...

that they were not saying on air?I had a strong feeling that the Romney campaign is going off the rails in ways we do not yet know.

tablet and said that barring something huge that Obama does wrong Romney can't possibly win this thing. Halperin ain't stupid. He doesn't want to just sit there and nod like a good doobie while Joe spews his crap. He knows the game is up...

He has sometimes wrote and said things that are not positive toward Repub tactics. I can't stand him but like Steve Schmidt and Michael Steele, he doesn't think the Repubs never make mistakes. Which makes this write up even more damning. He knows what he is talking about.

I realize that you are new to DU.

I hope this info will be helpful for future posts

It would be helpful if, when you mention a name in the headline of the post, you explain who that name refers to.

Also, when posting someone's writing, it should be contained in quote marks and attributed to the author and publication. No more than four paragraphs can be used in quoting someone's writing, in order to ensure that DU is not violating copyright laws.

Until other DU members posted replies to my question, I did not realize that the writing in this post was not your own original writing, and I had no clue who Halperin is or what Halperin had to do with the information in the post.

Thanks!

...cannot STAND him and it makes me barf that MSNBC has him on.

Hey, MSNBC, stop doing all possible to get US to turn YOU off!
