OFFICIAL : Meet The Press thread : Sunday Morning!!

[hypnagogue]

youtube?!?

It'd be wonderful if we could youtube while something happened. Maybe someday!

 

[Lois]

He's wearing Ron down a bit.

Will you run as an independent in 2008? Absolute promise?

No, he won't promise. "99.9999%. I don't like absolutist terms in politics."

"Have you asked the other candidates that? Ask them, too"

Asking about Mike Huckabee Cross commercial now.

Showing Ron being asked about the commercial and saying how "when Fascism comes, it will be wrapped in a cross, etc..."

 

[Ozwest]

Lois, omg please don't just say what they talk about, but how Ron is doing as well!!

+1

 

[kevinblack]

The tougher the questions the better. At least now Ron has a chance to defend himself.

Any of the issues posted so far in this forum could have been really bad if they appeared out of thin air the day before the election.

 

[Lois]

"This was not personal..." (commercial of Huckabee)

"Do you think we're close to Fascism?"

"I think we're very close, we're moving in that direction"

 

[Lois]

To be continued, next Sunday Huckabee and Obama on Meet the Press next Sunday.

its over?

 

[tyler477]

ha!
"ask the other candidates that too!"
way to stick it to him Paul!

 

[pacelli]

He got 30 minutes? WTF ?

 

[PINN4CL3]

He is handling himself well but this is not an interview that is going to win anyone over. Tim is doing everything he can to try and make him look bad.

Oh I disagree. This is the best interview of any of the candidates that I've seen, and I've been watching meet the press for years. I'm not sure I've ever seen anyone go after Tim on the quotes like Ron has. He was absolutely fearless, and answered every question.

He also came up with a huge highlight reel speech earlier, talking about how "we don't need the patriot act, we don't need surveillance...etc." I think that resonated with alot of people.

I am incredibly impressed.

 

[azminuteman]

30 minutes for the Dr. Now to break him down by the pundits.

Tim didn't give him enough time to respond to the earmarks either.

 

[Rex]

All Tim did was quote Newspaper articles like they were truth....

Terrible interview IMO

 

[Forefall]

Ron Paul was awesome.

 

[Ozwest]

That's all the time he got?

 

[tyler477]

hey guys! put it on youtuuuuuube!

 

[sluggo]

Ron Paul handled himself very well. I feel better about this interview than I did about Beck's.

 

[RPatTheBeach]

qft, thanks for the play by play

If the in-laws are thinkers, it won't hurt.

If they are susceptible to sensationalism, steer clear!

Yes!! This is the perfect way to start my Sunday. MTP is just right for Ron.

 

[Trassin]

That's all the time he got?

Yeah but sounds like Huck and Obama will only get a 1/2 hour each next week too.

 

[Lois]

Sorry, but it was hard to type and listen and watch at the same time.

It's on a commercial now. Ron Paul did great, except for he was a bit thrown for a loop at the beginning when Russert started in straight away attacking him -- wow.

You're gonna love this. I did.

Anyway, like I said, he quickly regained his composure and started to defend himself very well and kept in lock step answering each accusation greatly.
