Race in the race
[audio:HannityLieberman.mp3] The interview aired 2 weeks ago, on May 21. I thought it was interesting to note how ol' Joe, marcher for civil rights, framed Obama in his introductory remarks. I figure if we have guys on our side that shape our language and consult on communications; well... they do too. And I think this is probably just about perfect pitch if your reaching for certain votes. It's maddening though because it is just plausible enough that this could be an innocent gaffe - or not even a gaffe. In bringing it up, you risk blow-back for being touchy about race. Anyway, I thought I'd flag it. We'll see if this metaphor (or metaphors like it) comes up more frequently as the campaign heats up... Also, I marveled at the sequence of Joe's recipe. Shorter Joe (my comments in square brackets):
Your first impression of Obama is that he's cool. This is someone you'd want to have a drink with... But then you think: "Is cool good enough? He's gonna be President.. In charge of my security, taxes and life...
So you get nervous. After all, you don't know him very well. Then things come out like the Wright issue... [Whiplash inducing non sequitur]
Another thing: Obama's speech is always the same...
