poor guy, getting shot at from Both Hannity and Colmes...

it's like a metaphor for the real Presidential race, just Ralph all alone nobody likes him...

You guys should catch the re-run, Hannity rips into him (he's usually nice but Mary Landriu got him riled up)...

everybody: watch the re-run at 2:00 am EASTERN/1:00 am CENTRAL time...

I'm pretty jaded and keep up with so much news and columns on the internet anyway, and don't even watch political shows that much now cause they are so predictable, for some reason I left it on this time and I left it on after O'Reilly cause of the Vice President's interview with Hannity (could care less but I though what the heck), and was going to take a break from homework to play Donkey Konga, but man, I'm glad I left it on...

it's one of the most fascinating political things I've seen on TV recently...

Ralph Nader getting owned like that, it was almost a bizarre thing to watch...

like it had culminated to this point, I don't think Ralph's ever gotten this bad a welcome in the past few years...

Everywhere, he's treated like someone that won't win, so they are nice to him... Hannity is even nice when interviewing Howard Dean, he's a charmer even w/ hardcore libbies...

this time though, he ripped into him as if Nader's positions and ideas were really a threat somehow...
 
I saw this. It was funny but I don't know if it was worth raving about. What got Hannity started on Nader though was a comment Nader made about him. I don't remember what the comment was though (remember efralope?). But it was funny that when Hannity said "I'll bet you that you don't even get 3 percent," Nader didn't want to take the bet at first, but then said he'd take it but wouldn't put anything at stake. Nader knows he's a joke.

I'm not raving... it was pretty sad and I'm glad Nader didn't break down in all miserable and everything..

It was a disaster from the very start...

Nader was making a 1/2 joke when he first said:

"About that interview you just did with Dick Cheney, Sean, I have a new nickname for you, Softball Sean" or something like that...

Hannity then responded:

"oh, yeah, I got a new nickname for you too, LOSER with a capital L" or something to that effect, continuing with something to the effect of "you're a loser that can't even get 1% of the vote and that's why you're gonna lose"

The reason Hannity responded so strongly was cause the Louisana Senator Mary Landriu got him pissed off when she said the interview with Dick Cheney was a infomercial and not a interview (to be fair, Hannity is going to talk w/ the President on Sunday and the H&C has invited John Kerry and John Edwards to do an interview with Colmes that would last as long as the one's Sean is doing...)

At one point, he told Ralph Nader something to the effect of "nobody believes in your ideas and you're got no support, the people believe in George Bush and that's why he's going to get win and beat you and also John Kerry, etc... blah, blah, blah"

maybe he's upset that Kerry could pull it off with the help of Micheal Moore scaring the young vote... (and maybe he realizes some have the idea that Bush needs to have a massive lead to have a chance going into election day)...

Sean Hannity is the coolest commentator alive. He's both charming and hilarious, it's just the delivery of "... days until the people re-elect President Bush" (Colmes does the same thing... it's a fun show) and his fiery questioning to any poor liberal in front of him. Colmes is similar(to Republicans), but just more restrained. Great show, Great Man. Don't be dissin'.
 
Just watching the re-run now.

...Holy shit, did Cheney just accuse the Kerry campaign of using cheap, fear tactics? Fucking A, don't throw rocks when you live in a glass house.
 
Landrieu is an awesome Senator, and from reading the transcript she seemed to get the best of Sean, really getting under his collar. Good for her. I'll have to hunt for the video in the morning.

Oh wait, replay is on now? I'm turning it on.
 
Haha, Landrieu totally owned on the "scare tactic" issue. With some help from Colmes, even...was that some backbone, Alan? Just a little? The Fox overlords will not be pleased.
