Chris Matthews had a chance to interview Sen. Robert Menendez (D-NJ) today and used a stunning analogy to refer to the GOP’s slate of candidates: “stray cats and dogs.”
A rush transcript (and video) via Mediaite:
Senator, it is Chris Matthews. I am amazed that you have had a pretty good successful run I think in getting the kind of candidates you wanted this year. The Republicans, on the other hand, has gotten a lot of stray cats an dogs, a strange group you never would have predicted a year out. Look at Mike Lee knocking off the incumbent senator in Utah, 89% conservative rating and they said he wasn’t conservative enough. Joe Miller, coming out of nowhere. Rand Paul, of course, knocking off their favorite, Grayson, and then Ken Buck doing the same thing in Colorado. You are a little better off tonight, even though it looks like a tough night, aren’t you, than if the republican party had been as disciplined a its record would suggest over the years?
Looks like a lot of those strays are about to make Washington their home.

Posted on November 2, 2010 at 8:45pmMenendez is a complete idiot and will hopefully be gone soon. He is refering to their excellent array of canidates like Greyson and that mopheaded Wasserman-Shultz two of the biggest bafoons ever to disgrace the house floor. Although Wasserman will probally get a job mopping out the capital restrooms with that do.

Report Post »After tonight, he may give Chris a raise.
His boss does not care if this station operates at a loss.
It’s all about marxist philosophy.
Plus, they can always raise the price of light bulbs to cover the loss.Or sell MadJob in EyeRan illegal products/equiptments that can be used to further his military.Packaged as light bulbs of course.
Hussein won’t mind.

Posted on November 2, 2010 at 8:35pmRefering to Mr Matthew as an old goat seems to be an insult to the goats; although we do have a rooster in this area that I call Mr President (for whomever holds the office). It is always going about crowing at odd times and strutting its stuff.

Posted on November 2, 2010 at 8:34pmMr Matthews has also made one mistake, stray cats and dogs turn out to be among the most cunning and tenacious of fighters, often becoming more of an advisary than anyone who has not been there to see. So technically he is right, he has no idea of the crushing defeat the american people will deliver to them.

Posted on November 3, 2010 at 12:48pmMy best dog was a stray – I don’t think that is a bad thing. A polished pedigree is a panpered pooch that wants you to do more for him then he is willing do for you. He is a pedigree, he know better than you do. A stray knows the hard knocks in life and appreciates what you have done for him. I’ll take the stray, thank you.
