[janekat]

[realFedUp]

1. Give us the skinny

if we're tuned into football....

[janekat]

2. the Pubs on the panel - slashing Clark n/t

[VolcanoJen]

3. This oughta be fun.

Luntz segments are a hoot to those of us who know his background and what he's really about. He just luuuuuvs to pick on Dems.

Just tuned in....

[janekat]

4. I was outraged when he got his own show....

we should scream bloody murder.

[janekat]

5. Pub; What is he - a communist? n/t

[Nashyra]

7. The blond old bag

pissed because she thinks he wants to take from the rich and give to the poor. Imagine that, a more equitable distribution of wealth.

[madmax]

12. She resembles a blonder older looking

Kay Bailey Hutchinson.

[VolcanoJen]

17. "Redistribution of wealth!!! He supports Class Warfare!!"

That was her response after a clip showed Clark saying "You give the money back to people who need it the most, not the people who need it the least."

:puke:

I also loved the way Luntz said that economic issues were of the most concern to most Americans... he only points that out when Chimpy's not doing the soundbites. :-)

[madmax]

25. This is one of the reasons I like Clark

The way he stated his answer about tax cuts that you posted. It's hard to spin that. That's his position and it's as plain spoken as you can get.

He can also think on his feet and he's easy on the eyes. Now don't flame me, but you know there are people who vote for the guy 'with good hair.'

[TacticalPeek]

18. He's a repuke pollster, but almost never identified as such.

He used focus groups (peasants under glass is the trade term) and polling to frame the dishonored Newt's infamous Contract On America to make it marketable.

His primary function is to educate repukes on how to stick a knife in you while convincing you its a pat on the back.

[VolcanoJen]

24. He's a renowned, infamous, blood-letting Republican Strategist...

... yet for years now, the media has hawked him as a "pollster."

Dammit TacticalPeak, I can't stand his squirrely face... and can't believe I actually watched this program. Oh well... "know thine enemy," huh?

:-)

[TacticalPeek]

26. I once heard Tweety seque him into a heated Halfball discussion with:

"Frank, you jump in here; you don't have an axe to grind."


:puke:

[jeter]

27. and he's almost always wrong

Most famous quote: one day before 2000 election on Charlie Rose Show, "There is NO WAY Al Gore can win the popular vote."

[janekat]

6. Luntz: Why is he changing his name from Wesley to Wes? n/t

[VolcanoJen]

15. LMAO.. that's our Luntzie!

Luntz actually polled folks early in '93 when Hillary started hyphenating her name.

[janekat]

8. Pub: "we already tried to go to the UN - that didn't work" -

When they showed of clip of Clark saying that we should get International Support.

[jumptheshadow]

14. Snort!

Yes, we went to the U.N., while insulting its leadership, its WMD inspectors and its member nations. Somebody's wearing blinders...

[madmax]

9. The repugs seem scared to death of 'Wes'

Luntz is a putz. :crazy:

[janekat]

11. they're really riled up n/t

[tishaLA]

20. I'm scared of Luntzy

and that damned toupee he's wearing! Sheesh. How frequently can he change its color from brown to red?

[newyawker99]

30. Hi tishaLA!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[janekat]

10. WHERE are these people from?? Idiots!!!! n/t

[neverforget]

13. Listening to some of those in the audience talk about how we

"tried to form alliances" and it failed makes me realize that there are "Moron-Americans."

[oasis]

16. Who's the dizzy old blonde chick calling the General a commie?

And later says she doesn't want to comment on Clark because she "doesn't like him".

Luntz is playing the "Gore" card by saying the General is changing his name from Wesley to "Wes".

[VolcanoJen]

19. She called Clark "naive."

<snort> Pot, meet kettle...

[oasis]

21. A "naive" 4 star general? she must think Gen. Shenseki's a moron

for predicting the costs of the Iraq fiasco.

[VolcanoJen]

22. How DARE Luntz - Bringing up the California Recall

What a total creep... trying to appear impartial about the recall, when he's the guy who urged his fellow 'Pubbies to "kill Davis softly" in a memo to them last July...

http://www.insidevc.com/vcs/el_articles/article/0,1375,VCS_4116_2258635,00.html

Even the Republicans who seek to oust Davis are aware that the process of defending oneself against a recall can be so brutal that it could engender sympathy even for an unpopular politician. In a July memo, renowned Republican strategist Frank Luntz advised California recall backers that they must seek to "kill Davis softly" by attacking him "in the context of regret, sadness and balance."

They really ought to make people take a Frank Luntz Knowledge Test before they agree to be on his phony panel...

[Pepperbelly]

23. Don't worry Dean supporters ...

Frankie has enough love for Dean as well, currently trashing him for the race remarks.

:eyes:

[jonnyblitz]

28. Dean made race remarks? I missed that one..

:shrug:

[Pepperbelly]

29. nbd ...

just the flap over the remark about him being the only Prez candidate to talk about race to white audiences.

Frank still tried to see if he could float a smear with it.
