They're still drinking his kool-aid:
The Obama swoon: “He walks into a room and you want to follow him somewhere, anywhere.” —actor George Clooney Break “I’ll do whatever he says to do. I’ll collect paper cups off the ground to make his pathway clear.” —actress Halle Berry Break “This young man is the hope of the entire world that America will change and be made better. This young man is capturing audiences of black and brown and red and yellow. If you look at Barack Obama’s audiences and look at the effect of his words, those people are being transformed... A black man with a white mother became a savior to us. A black man with a white mother could turn out to be one who can lift America from her fall.” —Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan
Race bait: “Racial justice is the key for the salvation of the nation and that is fair game to discuss; it is a fair message. Blacks reaching out is not new; white receptivity is new. Barack is reaching out.” —Jesse Jackson
That other guy is running again: “You take that framework of people feeling locked out, shut out, marginalized and disrespected. You go from Iraq, to Palestine to Israel, from Enron to Wall Street, from Katrina to the bumbling of the Bush administration, to the complicity of the Democrats in not stopping him on the war, stopping him on the tax cuts. In that context, I have decided to run for president.” —perennial contender Ralph Nader
Non Compos Mentis: “Is there any possibility that, I’m just throwing this out... that the right wing of the party, the real conservative Limbaugh, Huckabee, that group, planted this [New York Times] article [against McCain]? Like they’re behind it?... Because they’re the ones who are trying to really cut him out, cut his legs off... Is that too conspiratorial?” —Joy Behar of “The View”
