Rachel, Popcorn and Blago- Oh my!

This might be fun with her 'EXCLUSIVE RACHEL INTERVIEW'

Sounds like she thinks she got him to admit he broke the law.

:popcorn:

Cowboy and poet.

::eyeroll::

Someone called him, on Olbermann's I think, "the Wyle E. Coyote of American Politics"

I find him an archetype for Americana politics.

Something is very Jungian about him.

Blago...I want them to play all of the tapes and it will prove my innocence.

tooth and nails... against the accusations thrown at him...

if only the rest will fight with such vigor...

Maybe we should tell him.....

But I've seen his type in the ring.

I do find him fascinating.

This guy has been dirty for a long time and people in Illinois know it. So maybe the rest of the Dems don't really need to fight because they aren't dirty like Blago.

Or a Faux news commentator.

He's a spinmaster of bullshit.

Food for the hungry!

This will be the best interview. Rachel won't buy the bullshit.

Why is she entertaining his bullshit?

as some would have us believe.

He is old school. Hard to hate him.

no matter how hard I try I can't hate him, he's likable cause he's so wacky and entertaining. :-)

might occasionally sound, he is.

Or did he say Obama raised 10 million in order to defeat her?

It seems he was implying something and I was one who dropped out of the fighting during the campaign - I know nothing about 10 million.

Anyone hear this?

Where is this 10 million coming from?

:crazy:

"Hillary Clinton agrees to promote Obama for president for 10 million dollars
Front page / World / Americas
26.06.2008 "

"Democrat Barack Obama on Tuesday asked his finance team to help Hillary Rodham Clinton pay off a debt of at least $10 million from her failed presidential campaign, setting the stage for joint appearances by the two former rivals later in the week. "

Any better sources? :D

I did post a youtube clip - I would assume it came from one of the U.S. corporate networks.

Here's Jake Tapper on an ABC blog:

Very short snippet:

Obama Asks Top Moneyfolks to Help Clinton Retire Her Debt
June 24, 2008 7:34 PM

"ABC News has learned that on a conference call with his national finance team this afternoon, Sen. Barack Obama, D-Illinois, asked his top contributors to help Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-NY, retire her more than $10 million in outstanding vendor debt. He did not specify an amount.

Clinton's debt has been a major point of contention as the two former rivals attempt to reconcile.

Clinton will appear at an Obama fundraiser Thursday night in Washington, D.C., and the two will campaign together in Unity, NH, on Friday."

giving preferences to blogs - that' what I saw. Perhaps the WP NYT etc are at the end.

P.S. Some of the matches related to previous fundraising actions - which also included the number 10.

More: Maybe it wasn't a big deal except between people who leaned Clinton or Obama and were already sparring.

But, I think Blago was insinuating something - I'm going to listen to the replay, though it isn't pleasant to listen to someone wiggling like he is. He's a fighter for himself, that's for sure.

used it, it sounded (a little?) crooked.

His presentation today is different from even yesterday. Curious, that.

She got him on the editorial board tape and now
he's talking healthcare again to change the subject

as a person who likes to be at "the edge." He approaches the edge in interviews on tv. I assume he attempted to rule from the edge as governor. The federal prosecutor says he crossed the edge, and engaged in criminal behaviors. He is intent upon convincing people that he never crossed the edge. Very strange guy, in a tough situation.

He could have worked in the banking business.

I'm tired of his recycled rhetoric.

he did it all for women's breast cancer....whadda guy

plus the Best Buy extended service plan.

By hook or by crook.

He's likeable because he was trying to do good for the people. By breaking the law.

Someone needs to school this guy on how this country works.

I love him, but he's nuts.

she was from MA.

of those durned librels?

to establish a level of "familiarity" between the two of them. There are two ways to view this. First, he could simply like her show, and have spent time learning more about her. Or, second, he might be a sociopath, who had looked up a bit of information about her, and was trying to connect with her to make her more sympathetic to him.

there has been a complete annihilation of the presumption of innocence in this case...which I find rather odd, coming from Democrats..tapes or no tapes.

the court of public opinion is NOT bound to it in any way, shape or form and never has been.

Rachel is great.

is he doing the tonight show? letterman? meet the press? benny hinn?

I'm dumbfounded.

that she thought she scored out of the interview.


"a man who represents himself in court has a fool for a lawye"r

Blago is small fry considering what goes on "day after day" in Congress, according to one knowledgeable talking head.

We shall see.

as completely disingenuous.....
keeps talking about how all
he did was for the good of the people...
but it sounds like BS to me.

So he is an insider to the real deal or is he twisting it to imply that everyone buys and sells when 'negotiating', so he is not guilty?

Weasel and lawyer alert. This show - a measure of his character.

Than an Egyptian Crocodile! Sheesh! Why is she wasting a full hour on that loser?
