Jokenalism 2010 For 8/12/10: That's How They All Feel
In fact, Allen's very candid assessment of what the D.C. stenographers and gossip writers yearn for represents not only his sorry publication's hopes, but all of his Beltway colleagues' top wishes in full glaore.
It is an interview that both Instaputz and Atrios have been all over this today. And it sure is disgusting to see and hear:
Hugh Hewitt: Well you know, Mike, I read John Harris’ piece at Politico, and I’ve got to say, the one thing I didn’t see covered well, Jane Norton got more votes losing than Michael Bennet got winning. It’s the same thing we saw in Missouri, the same thing we saw in Georgia. Yeah, the left turned out…Every reporters wet dream is seeing pure gridlock at its finest where nothing gets done and Ben Nelson is the President of the United States.
Mike Allen: Yeah, so you’re saying there’s an intensity issue.
HH: Yes, I’m saying that Michael Bennet’s going to get wiped out by Ken Buck. What do you think?
MA: (laughing) I don’t know, but I can tell you the press loves the fact that Ken Buck, he’ll definitely be covered. Very colorful, he definitely will be good copy. It’s just like the dream of every reporter is that the Republicans will pick up nine seats, and that Marco Rubio wins in Florida, because Hugh, you know what that means?
HH: Impeachment! No. (laughing)
MA: That’s a 50-50 Senate. That’s power sharing. Ben Nelson suddenly is huge.
A Village reporter's wet dream is seeing extremists and chauvinists make the House of Lords even more unbearable than it already is.
A Village reporter's wet dream is actually jokes of impeachment with the thought of bringing it up actually a reality in such a scenario.
It's no wonder why Mike Allen and Hackio continue to be the hack losers they are. And it's no wonder why everyone loathes the Village hacks for being proud of the piss poor jobs they do for the country every single day.
Our Jokenalism 2010 at its finest folks. Latter, rinse, and happily repeat.
