Colbert Report ???

Isn't that how Obama got elected with a little help from Saturday Night Live ?

Nope.

I thought it was obvious, the legacy of GWB got Obama elected. The counter productive Tea Party got him re-elected.
 
NPR and BBC are about equal for me.:mrgreen:

But they were running on the absolute failure of Bush. He drove our economy off the cliff and got us into Iraq knowing the the intelligence was faulty. McCain connected himself to the GWB legacy - which sucked.

As bad as Palin was, I could argue that she was a large reason the Christian Conservatives bothered to vote at all.

McCain did say he was a "maverick", i.e., a notbush, but Obama was still a more credible notbush.

and, of course, the lunatic fringe of the opposition claiming that Obama was a Muslim terrorist, a Kenyan, a socialist, and the AntiChrist didn't help their cause at all.

The Republicans might complain about Obama, but they helped him get elected.

McCain WAS a maverick before GWB was in office.

I would have voted for him back in 2000. In fact, I did in the primary.
never did much care for Bush, though, with his phony down home Texas persona, and liked him even less when he let Cheney, Wolfowitz, and Rumsfeld get us involved in Iraq.
