TPMtv: Flip-Flop in the Wilderness TPMtv: Flip-Flop in the Wilderness
Posted by: Veracifier

Video duration: 303 seconds

Your Daily Politics Video Blog: Our question of the day: if a flip flops in the wilderness but no one hears, did it really flop? Or in other words, if a news story like John McCain's recent shift in position on troop levels in Afghanistan doesn't fit in with the dominant narrative of the campaign, will any news organizations pick up on it?

Your Daily Politics Video Blog: The standout performance of last night was Tim Russert's repeated tirades at the candidates for not answering his clownish questions. So we thought we'd string all of Tim's gonzo moments into one tight reel. Let's all repeat together, "I'm rough enough, I'm tough enough, and doggone it, people like me!"

Watchin'em so you don't have to. It was wall-to-wall election talk on the Sunday shows this weekend. And it's looking pretty bleak for the Republican frontrunners. Even Bill Kristol can barely put a good face on it.

Your Daily Politics Video Blog: The general election matchup between John McCain and Barack Obama received a symbolic champagne bottle smash against the hull last week when President Bush implicitly attacked Barack Obama's foreign policy as appeasement during a speech in Jerusalem. Obama fired back, McCain jumped in, and the ship was off and sailing.

Your Daily Politics Video Blog: With the parade of stuttering, parsing and forgetting witnesses that the Bush administration has produced, it can be easy to take such performances for granted. But we'll never forget General Services Administration chief Lurita Doan. That's because when it came to testifying before Congress, Doan was something special.
