Reply #116: KO is probably incompetent for the job he was given. His fund of knowledge is too low. [View All]

Tonight, he said "Democrats lose white votes in the presidential elections" "it is Black votes that got Bill Clinton elected". He does not even know what political strategists mean when they use the (pejorative) term Reagan Democrats. He does not know how Bill Clinton won in 1992.

If KO thinks that he is going to charm the SDs by calling mention of the working class white Democrats "race baiting", then he is a fool. Appeals to working class white Democrats are just like appeals to African-Americans and Latinos and gays and unions---this is one more viable ethnic group in the melting pot of the Democratic Party. This group is not afraid to vote for an African-American. This group refuses to vote for Kerry, Gore, Bush Sr or anyone else that it perceives of as being out of touch with the problems of the working American who is slipping quickly into poverty.

The ugly rhetoric was back tonight. "bitter" "racially divisive" (that was what KO was doing) "self destructive" (he is the one trying to divide and conquer the Dems) "Richard Nixon" "lame duck" "grossness" "sadness".

Then he called Mark Penn "shot on knowledge."

I give up on KO. I thought he might be the next Walter Cronkite. He is the next Bill O'Reilly.

Someone get Dan Rather a network TV job again, please . We need a serious anchor. Dan Rather may not be a charismatic as KO, but he has brains and integrity. Americans trust him.
