Unelectable.

I’m gonna quote Atrios on this one:

...and another thing. Stop ceding the goddamn debate. Who here thinks Howard Dean can beat Bush? Why Ted, you ignorant slut, Fred Flintstone could take Bush with Barney Rubble as his campaign manager. Wesley Clark should stop saying that he needs to be the nominee because someone needs to be able to match Bush at foreign policy. What Clark should say is that Joey Tribiani could match Bush at foreign policy, though he, Clark, has the most experience. Stop acknowledging that Bush is strong on anything. He’s a big loser. He’s a miserable failure. He’s lost 3 million jobs. He got us into a screwed up war. Our soldiers are being killed by terrorists. The Middle East is a mess. Afghanistan is a mess. OBL is alive. Hussein is alive.

Say it with me, everybody: George W. Bush is unelectable.

    From your mouth, to Ghu's ear, I hope.

    I sure do wish I could believe it.

    There's an terrifying number of people around that think that Bush is not only competent, but is a great president.

    The fact that this opinion is founded on ignorance doesn't reduce their numbers.

    The fact that this opinion is founded on ignorance doesn't reduce their numbers.

    In fact, they could increase. People are profoundly attracted to their ignorance.

    And he is re-electable. Not on the basis of ignorance, but of fear, and for good measure, apathy. Even in 2004, you will see a significant proportion of the electorate staying home on election day for no better reason than they could not care less.

    Just my gut instinct.

    Guys, you're not with the program, here. George W. Bush has been a miserable failure; now he's unelectable.

    And he is, too. The spectacle of the Democratic candidates refusing to raise their hands in the debate was disgraceful. It practically shoves me into the Dean camp. --George W. Bush lost last time, and he's going to lose again, goddammit; if he is electable by this country, then fuck it. It's time to give up on this country. Period. Full friggin' stop.

    Do as I say and as I do: repeat after me:

    Unelectable.

    Not only that; he's also unelectable.com

    Course, if one of your biggest supporters also makes the voting machines (Diabold), you are eminently electable.

    Unelectable is #1 now. Could this question be the next meme? What's the definition of a dodipoll?

    He is definitely unelectable! The next questions are: what's the definition of a dodipoll? and what's the definition of a cheap labor conservative?

    Bush has done more to hurt the environment, health care, and our freedoms than any other president. He has set our country back 50 years.

    I for one want clean drinking water, forests, and clean air.

    This discussion of our unelectable President reminds me of the Seinfeld hypothesis (95% of the population is undatable) and its corollary (somehow they all get together anyway).
