You know what really funny about Bob McDonnell?

[FSogol]

He's what the GOP considers a rising star!

:rofl:

[valerief]

1. You know what's not so funny? The voters who take him seriously. nt

[FSogol]

5. Don't remind me. I'm surrounded by them. n/t

[valerief]

10. They're like the living dead, aren't they? nt

[Grand Taurean]

2. He is not charismatic at all.

:wtf: were the pundits talking about last fall?

[demosincebirth]

3. Has a face like my basset hound

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

4. And last year they called Bobby Jindal a rising star.

Having to come on after an Obama speech tends to cause that star to disappear into a black hole...

[madinmaryland]

6. What a fucking phony and a phony show.

What a douchebag.

[hatrack]

7. Another used-car salesman . . .

:puke:

[KaryninMiami]

8. He's just as pathetically funny as Jindal was last year.

And the speech is just as horrendously written. They are absolutely amazing. Who picks these guys? Who writes their speeches? GEEEEZZZZ

[malaise]

14. +1,000

:rofl:

[dflprincess]

9. You gotta wonder how last year's "rising star" feels.

You just never hear much about poor old Bobby Jindal anymore.

And, somewhere in Minnesota, Tim Pawlenty is kicking his dog tonight because he wasn't considered enough of a "rising star" to get a shot at this speech.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

15. Has Jindal even been seen in public since that debacle?

And can you imagine the speech Timmy the Tool would have delivered if he'd been asked? Maybe it's a good thing for him that he wasn't, since this gig is apparently the kiss of death.

11. Southern (sorta) and white

That's the only criteria.

[NRaleighLiberal]

12. Nothing? Mr Rogers with no sense of humor and the wrong politics...

[Oceansaway]

13. i skip and skate to school...ugh...n/t

[begin_within]

16. It looks like they consider anyone who wins an election to be a rising star.
