RUSH: The Democrats in the media were just beside themselves over the stupidity of the formatting of this convention. You want to know how unified this party is, you want to know where the Clintons are? Listen to James Carville. This is on CNN\u2019s America, a panel discussion about the first night of the convention.<\/p>\n

CARVILLE: Well, well, if this party has a message, it\u2019s done a hell of a job of hiding it tonight. I promise you that. Maybe — maybe we\u2019re going to look better, you know, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. But right now, like I say, we — we\u2019re — we\u2019re — we\u2019re playing ‘Hide the Message.\u2019 I\u2019m about to jump out the chair and say — I\u2019m just saying you got four nights. There\u2019s no — there\u2019s no message coming outta here. There\u2019s no sense that the party has a sense of urgency or any of that, and — and you know, only got four nights. This is 25% of the whole thing.<\/p>\n

RUSH: Now, he\u2019s clearly distressed here, but also know this. He\u2019s not out campaigning for Obama. He is a Clinton loyalist. David ‘Rodham\u2019 Gergen was asked if he agreed.<\/p>\n

GERGEN: I do. I think Dave Carville (sic) put it, uh, uh, as succinctly and as — and as he always does, as colorfully as anyone might. And I thought, Anderson, listen, uh, I thought that they lost the first two hours of this with — with — with almost nothing going on the stage. This is a television show with a message. If you lose the first 25% of it, you\u2019ve just frittered something away.<\/p>\n

RUSH: They were all worried. They were all worried. (interruption) Well, because they came on the air at ten o\u2019clock when the networks joined them with Jim Leach, a Republican from Iowa who is supporting Obama. I mean, I\u2019ll tell you: If it weren\u2019t for his varicose veins, this guy would be totally colorless. He\u2019s a cadaver standing up there. They brought an old, wrinkly white guy up there. This guy could not… (sigh) The word ‘excitement\u2019 I don\u2019t think he even knows how to spell, and that\u2019s what they came on the air with. Now, Jeffrey Toobin, their CNN legal analyst, was asked to comment on Michelle (My Belle)\u2019s speech.<\/p>\n

TOOBIN: There is one big missing piece tonight, I think, which is why the American people should throw the bums out. We haven\u2019t heard one word about that. We have the most unpopular president in American history, and he\u2019s barely been mentioned tonight. I just think that is an extraordinary gaffe. Democrats have never shown, at least in recent history, that they are good at negative campaigning. Republicans are terrific at it. And Democrats have been lousy at it, and I don\u2019t think they were any good at it tonight.<\/p>\n

RUSH: You think, this is beyond belief. This is just impossible to accept and keep your sanity. Democrats don\u2019t know negative campaigning? How about ‘Bush = Hitler\u2019? How about all the lies about Bush and Cheney for the last seven years on the Iraq war, Jeffrey? You need to stick to analyzing judges and legal decisions. Democrats don\u2019t know how to negatively campaign? How about Carville turning Ken Starr into a sex pervert, in people\u2019s minds? This is… They\u2019re just so mad. The Drive-Bys hate Bush. They couldn\u2019t understand it. There was no hatred of Bush in there last night. And here is The Forehead who is with Wolf Blitzer during a discussion of the convention speakers.<\/p>\n

BEGALA: Who cares what Jim Leach says? I mean, no disrespect — well, some disrespect to him. I don\u2019t really care what he says.<\/p>\n

BLITZER: He\u2019s a moderate Republican who supports Barack Obama!<\/p>\n

BEGALA: They can have him. I can\u2019t stand him.<\/p>\n

VOICES: (giggling)<\/p>\n

BEGALA: Um, eh, er, but they — and he\u2019s unimportant and unworthy of being at this convention.<\/p>\n

RUSH: (laughing) Now, contrast that. Here\u2019s poor old Jim Leach. He\u2019s just Chuck Hagel with white hair. They\u2019re trying to show these Democrats how much they\u2019re loved. They try to show these Democrats how much they respect \u2019em, that they\u2019re not ‘typical\u2019 conservative Republicans, and Begala says, ‘(blowing a raspberry!) I don\u2019t give a rat\u2019s rear end about Jim Leach. I don\u2019t care — Well, I do have a problem. He has no right being here.\u2019 They\u2019re not interested in moderates. The Democrats don\u2019t want moderates. (laughing) They were foaming at the mouth last night, folks, they were so dissatisfied with what they were seeing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
