you've given out a few clues over the years on your mediocre interrupt-fest, Hardball. I've heard you quote DUers verbatim without giving proper credit or annotation, but that's neither here nor there...

You were railing on the other night that Obama was, because he was wearing cool sunglasses, acting 'elite' and too cool. Well, you dumb putz, he IS cool - he's hip, he's brilliant, he's funny, he's sharp, he's successful, and maybe, just maybe, he's on the cusp of being elected President of these United States.

You on the other hand, are a mediocre former-speechwriter, former-confidant, former-up-and-coming TeeVee hysteric. That last qualification was eliminated when Keith trumped your 9 of spades with charisma and real on-air talent which consists not only of claiming to have perspective, but that he actually has a sense of humor which you lack utterly. Of courses, you pretend to have one, but your explosive laugh is unsettling and absurdist, but I digress again.

You are thinking of running for Senator in My Commonwealth, the state which you call 'home'. You list the cliches of Pennsylvania: Tastykake, South Philly, Frank Rizzo, Bill Green, Bill Green's father, Bill Green's son, Pat's Steaks, Soft Pretzels, and Rocky Balboa. We're real impressed, let me tell you.

You may stop sticking your finger in the air, and pretending to be objective: you're a tear-down artist of the first order, you're annoying: you ask questions and when the poor guest attempts to answer, you re-phrase the question and talk over him or her. Periodically you assail a McCain or other Republican spokesperson, but you do it to gain the confidence of your left-wing audience, which is diminishing in numbers fairly rapidly. You then do a 180 degree turn and say something stupid, like the sunglass crack. Why don't you mention that McCain called his wife an unspeakable word, or that in your 60 or so years, I bet you've never met anyone who went to 6 schools in order to receive a B.A. as Palin apparently did. Let's have some real 'reportage', huh? You're going to be running as a Democrat I hear, and we shall not forget nor shall we forgive your transgressions here.

Your friend,

PCIntern
