demeaning nick names for 2008 GOP candidates needed.

[Hamlette]

Edwards is a faggot or the Breck Girl, Gore is Ozone Man, Kerry was French...Obama is Obambi things the right (with help from Maureen Dowd) call our leaders which demean them and make them look weak.

We need to do the same.

I'm thinking McCain is looking crazy and tired and old. Breck girl works for Romney but we need to be original. Maybe "Cult Leader"? or Pretty Boy, or Mr. Osmond.

Guiliani could be "Mr. Family Values"

It has to be something they can't defend against or if they do try to defend against, they look to be overreacting. Something almost playful so we can "oh, lighten up, we're just kidding."

I'm sticking with "Mr. Family Values" for Rudy....

other/better ideas?

[flying_wahini]

1. how about whithered up bag of goo, for McCain?

5. Rudy's been known as "Il Duce" in NYC for a while now. n/t

[DinahMoeHum]

[no_hypocrisy]

Clever!

:-)

[jcrew2001]

6. FR hates all 3

If you read FR, they hate all 3 - McInsane, McCrazy, i use old man McCain.

RINO Rudy - i can't spell his last name. besides, I want Rudy to win the GOP nomination - screw the conservatives.

Mormon Mitt, darth helmet is a good one, slick mitt, flip flop mitt, massachusetts Mitt

[NewJeffCT]

11. Rudy is very dangerous if he wins the nomination

He will appeal to the moderates that are leery of conservatives like Brownshirt or Huckleberry

[Indigent A-hole]

13. I like Mormon Mitt

Just to keep up the drumbeat until the mainstream media really starts to go after him for his religious ties.

How about "Mitt-course Correction?" due to his fragile policy views? Or Flip-Floppin' Mitt?

[Kelly Rupert]

22. I like "Multiple-choice Mitt."

Picking on someone's religion just seems too Republican for my tastes.

[rep the dems]

34. I agree. Multiple choice Mitt is a classic, I could care less what religion

he is. Thank you, Ted Kennedy!

10. Ooo! Oooo! Ooooo! RANDY RUDY ....thrice married adulterer!!!

The WrongWing Evangelicals would really appreciate that!

[Tummler]

12. Rudy "The Kissin' Cousin" Giuliani

His Republican primary opponents will also make hay out of his "drag" appearance(s), without any help from our side.

[Tummler]

14. "Multiple Choice" Mitt is an oldie but a goodie

John McCain, by contrast, is "an oldie but a baddie." :D

[zbdent]

15. Rudy Judy-Annie

"Divorced from Reality"

[Eugene]

16. Multiple-choice Mitt

Romney

Mittens has taken nearly every possible position on abortion, gay rights,
contraception, and gun control at one time or another.

[zbdent]

17. Flip-Side McCain

Who, after having suffered torture at the hands of the Vietnamese, now feels that Torture is effective.

Who knows what information McCain gave his captors in Vietnam?

[rkc3]

28. I've thought that for a while - he may have gotten more GIs killed

than Hanoi Jane.

Surely he know how effective torture can be.

[zbdent]

36. and the thing is, it was the Bush camp which made this

an issue ...

:grr:

[TerdlowSmedley]

24. May I suggest Benito Giuliani, the lisping, hunchbacked

megalomaniac? (Now, if only he hadn't given up that cheesy comb-over.)

[DinahMoeHum]

29. Giuliani = "Il Douche"

n/t

[TlalocW]

25. Shack-Up Guiliani

For trying to get his mistress into the governor's mansion when he was still married.

TlalocW

[Tummler]

26. Perhaps some variant of "Mayor McCheese" for Giuliani

For the uninitiated, some background on the honorable McCheese:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayor_McCheese

To counteract the myth-in-the-making that he's a tough-minded foreign-policy expert and international statesman, we should emphasize the fact that his primary political experience is as mayor of a city -- a large city, to be true, but a city nonetheless.

If the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination were "merely" a former mayor, the narrative in the media (fueled by the right) would involve this person's near-total lack of experience with "serious" (i.e., state and national) issues.

Something like "Mayor McSleaze" would cover Giuliani's two weakest points.

[Dr.Phool]

27. Brownshirt Brownback

[PerfectSage]

32. Romney Dangerfield, don't get no respect.

Rudy the red nosed reindeer, struck a family values pose...

Candy Ass McCane

Who can take a sunrise
Sprinkle it in dew
Cover it in chocolate
and a miracle or two?

The candy ass
The candy ass can
The candy ass can cause he mixes it with love and makes the world taste good...


... :+

[rep the dems]

35. John McCant, Shitty Mitty, Tom Bomb Mecca Tancredo...
