The blimp is going to be on the Situation Room soon!

[wealeat]

They just teased it.

[rollingpig]

'bout time!!

[DaneKirk]

You beat me to it! I just saw it too. I actually liked what Beck said about global warming before that though. Just a side note.

[chiefsmurph]

Yea...and about global taxes.

[Quick]

Not sure what you're expecting. I'm really excited about the blimp, but The Situation Room has always provided horrible coverage of Ron Paul.

I'm not going to be able to watch it, but let me know how many times Wolf says isolationist, "he ran as a libertarian in 1988", fringe/dark horse/maverick candidate, "low in the polls", "internet sensation", or any 3rd party running question.

I guess some news is better than no news.

[Ozwest]

Please U-Tube it.

[Forefall]

Ugh, they probably won't say much about it.

[RonFan1776]

"Inflation is sort of like a hidden tax." - Wolf Blitzer

Hrm... think I've heard that somewhere recently?

[RonFan1776]

Ugh... farm subsidy supporters hurt my brain.

[gagnonstudio]

Anyone notice the segment they just did about inflation? About how its really higher than what they tell you, and Wolf Blitzer says "it's almost like a hidden tax."

Where have I heard that before? Who was the only one talking about this for months? I can't remember.... I think it might have been Ron Paul.

[DaneKirk]

When they were talking about inflation and they said it was like an extra tax, it made me think of Ron Paul. It would have been a perfect way to start talking about the blimp.

[Forefall]

I guess they're gonna ignore it..?

[gagnonstudio]

"Inflation is sort of like a hidden tax." - Wolf Blitzer

Hrm... think I've heard that somewhere recently?

Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.

[RonFan1776]

LOL, agreement with everyone for a truce (Hillary Clinton).... lets not let the dirt (truth) out about anybody!

[FireofLiberty]

On the inflation tax, when Wolf said that I thought to myself "he's channeling Ron Paul."

[wealeat]

I noticed that as well, hopefully they cover the blimp soon.

BTW, I think that the Situation Room gives us pretty good coverage compared to any other.

[brumans]

This segment is all about Mike Huckabee. I haven't heard them mention Giuliani at all... I think Giuliani is done for, thank god. We need to shift momentum fast, Iowa and NH are slowly approaching. The 16th can do it.

[OKRonPaul]

I'm not going to be able to watch it, but let me know how many times Wolf says isolationist, "he ran as a libertarian in 1988", fringe/dark horse/maverick candidate, "low in the polls", "internet sensation", or any 3rd party running question.


I think you just created the RP drinking game :D

[FreeTraveler]

I didn't miss it did I?

[DaneKirk]

I agree, it is not the best but better than nothing. I am glad I stayed up to watch this, I am in Turkey and it is almost midnight! I always hope that they will talk about Ron.

[Forefall]

This fucking sucks, what a cock tease.

[RonPaulwillWin]

Hmm...segments on love letters, and coffee habits. WTF?

[slantedview]

turkey eh? someone wave a red flag or something when this is on... i'll flick on my internet video here :)

[Peppy690]

i think they are leaving it toward the end because they now the ratings will shoot up to watch ron paul

[DaneKirk]

I think you just created the RP drinking game :D

I like the way you think

[AtomiC]

Ehh I guess they just want all the RP supporters to stay tuned in while they cover it half an hour later, lol.

[parke]

This fucking sucks, what a cock tease.

Please watch your language. Im not throwing stones.. but please be a little more respectful.

[wealeat]

They haven't showed it yet. They must be giving us a chance to let all the supporters now on the internet. :D

[Forefall]

Who cares about coffee??

[slantedview]

this teasing stuff is BS. i hate CNN.

[DaneKirk]

It's on.

[wealeat]

Now!!

[wealeat]

30 seconds that was actually pretty good.

[Forefall]

That was pretty good actually. They mentioned the tea party :)

[DaneKirk]

I stayed up for that! At least they mentioned it I suppose.

[alsis8xmy]

Not a bad spot, but they drastically underestimated the tea party. They said ~5mil. Wow, we are really going to ring their bell on Sunday!

[FluffyUnbound]

Giving the tea party some press along with the blimp. Nice.

[Magsec]

I liked Cafferty's attitude towards the coffee segment.

[Matthew Zak]

That was excellent. Perfect little nugget of positivity that a new viewer may have seen.

[DaneKirk]

I thought it would be more than 30 sec. After all it is the first blimp a presidential candidate has ever had. But yes at least they mentioned the Tea Party.

[FireofLiberty]

LOL @ Cafferty! "That stuff about the coffee... fascinating stuff."

Wolf: How do you take your coffee?
Cafferty: No one cares.

[tsetsefly]

utube...

[slantedview]

did they show any real footage of the real blimp? i wonder when we'll start seeing this.

[rollingpig]

not as bad as i imagined

[Cap'n Crunk]

I liked Cafferty's attitude towards the coffee segment.

ya i laughed out loud at his comment

[amonasro]

did they show any real footage of the real blimp? i wonder when we'll start seeing this.

Yup, they showed the Youtube video of it taking off. She mentioned the Tea Party may bring in excess of $5 million, and that RP is having a hard time figuring out what to do with the money, and that he has 90 paid staffers as opposed to 3 a few months ago. They also showed part of a Tea Party Youtube video.

LOL @ Cafferty! "That stuff about the coffee... fascinating stuff."

Cafferty: No one cares.

Ha! I love Cafferty - he'd be a great grandfather to have.


CNN GIVE CAFFERTY HIS OWN SHOW!!!

[jgmaynard]

That was pretty good - but they didn't mention how Ron takes his coffee :( ;)

JM

[Forefall]

Everyone is owning Huckabee... lol.

[V4Vendetta]

wow, cool... does anyone know, if they got the other side fixed with a banner yet?

[DaneKirk]

Everyone is owning Huckabee... lol.

I might get crap for saying this but I think Huck is likable, but I would not vote for him because I think he would get flogged in the general election.

[conner_condor]

How can you like a 2 faced liar?

[V4Vendetta]

Don't feed the Huckleberry Troll.

YouTUBE of Situation room coverage in process right now.

[ursamajor]

just because someone hasn't posted a lot before doesn't mean that they don't like ron paul. babies are so stupid!

[Spike Kojima]

thats NOT a legitimate feed!! they are showing video from another blimp

And from another decade by the looks of the camera quality.

Yeah, you're right. You will! LOL

We could have a drinking game. Everybody does a shot whenever he says any of those.

Wolf "It's a Ron Paul phenomenon for sure"

fairly positive. And that chick is hot.

[Primbs]

Great news story.

[Revolutn]

Baby?

Whatever dude.

I'm just saying, it's a CLASSIC tactic for a relatively new person to come in and say something, but try to couch it in non threatening language, so people look 'mean' if they challenge it.

For a Ron Paul supporter, there's really NOTHING likable about Tax Hike Mike pHuckleberry.

I'm sorry that that reality doesn't sit well with you.

Rev

[theprolific]

great coverage!

[RPinSEAZ]

Will it fit in the situation room? I thought the blimp was pretty big?
