Gloria, Jeff, John, Dana, SuziQ:  They're beginning to sound like the cast of the Mickey Mouse Club. But don't let that fool you. They're TEAWBPNTOTV!!!*

Let's listen in!

Wolf asked about the Rightie McCandidates' debate, poor Willard Romney, and how the McC's are ganging up on him:

Gloria: "Ouch" ... "He's easy."

Jeff: "They were tired. They were grumpy. They don't like Mitt Romney. They can't stand him."  

John Bash: He's "the pinata in this race."

Gloria: In New Hampshire, "Huckabee has to run on his schtick."

Jeff: "It [the Republican debate] was a long 2 hours." There's not a lot of difference on the issues.

John Bash: In campaigning, "there is momentum and there is 'a moment'. You can stop momentum. It's hard to stop 'a moment'." It's a "tough test" for Hillary Clinton to stop Obama's momentum.

Jeff: Hillary "spoke in prose", Obama "spoke in poetry."

Gloria: There were 2 Hillary Clintons: The angry frustrated, "I embody change!" one, and the "someone told her to smile, be charming one" [as in her "Well, that hurts my feelings...but I'll still try to go on" in response to her likability factor vs. Obama's].  "Being two people is tough. Obama has been the same throughout his campaign." 

John Bash: "In New Hampshire, Obama's numbers are off the charts with Republicans!...Stopping that is hard to do." ... and this:  "Can a 71-year-old man be for change opposite Barack Obama?"

We can't forget about SuziQ's snappy burgundy jacket with a dyed-to-match faux fur-lined hood. And finally:

Dana King: "The Mac [McCain] is back!" The debate was "crackling". And this tidbit: Willard didn't realize that his campaign was calling "The Mac's" policy amnesty. Whoops! That's creating problems for Willard.
