NOVEMBER MOORPRISE
Just when it seemed Democrats had a shot at victory in the mid-terms, along waddles notorious failure omen Michael Moore to screw things up:
As good as things look for the Democrats, do not pop the corks and start the partying yet. Do not believe for a second that the Republicans plan on losing. They will fight like dogs for the next 24 hours—relentless, unforgiving, nonstop action to squeeze every last conservative voter out of the house on election day. While the rest of us go about our day today, tens of thousands of Republican volunteers are knocking on doors, making phone calls, and lining up rides to the polls. They’re not sleeping, they’re not eating ...
They’re not eating? That’s a level of dedication Moore must respect! The wealthy undercover Republican activist continues:
The reason they have to work so hard is that, before they can get the vote out, they first have to completely turn around the massive public opinion against them. Almost 60% disapprove of Bush. Over 60% are opposed to the war. Those are landslide numbers. And the American people are not going to turn pro-war or into Bush-lovers by tomorrow morning. So it should be easy for us, right?
Well, yes. Unless the Moore Effect kicks in:
Yup. Just like it was when we won the popular vote in 2000 and when we were ahead in the exit polls all day long in 2004. You know the deal—the other side takes no prisoners. And just when it seems like things are going our way, the Republicans suddenly, mysteriously win the election.
Note Moore’s claim that “we won the popular vote in 2000”. In fact, Moore didn’t support Al Gore in 2000; he supported Ralph Nader. The lying freak hopes his fans have forgotten.
UPDATE. Even Democrat voters are sick of Mike:
Michael Moore can kiss my ass. He MAKES ME WANT TO VOTE REPUBLICAN just so he can feel bad about himself some more.
