Rove on Obama: 'He's the Guy at the Country Club'

clipped from www.motherjones.com
This has gotta be sign of desperation, right? Rove's newest frame on Obama:

Even if you never met him, you know this guy. He's the guy at the country club with the beautiful date, holding a martini and a cigarette that stands against the wall and makes snide comments about everyone who passes by.

Yup. Because when I think of a half-black guy who grew up with a single parent in Kansas, Hawaii, and Indonesia, I definitely think of a 1980s teen movie prepster/villain. The picture of classic American privilege, that Obama.

Not only that, but why should I know that guy? The average person doesn't know that country club prick at all. But Rove, a country club snob himself, knows all about country club pricks.

Yeah, that line of attack out to work just great. Let McCain point out that he's a country club snob too.

Just brilliant advice, Karl.

Its pretty incredible the crap that the republicans and their supporters are hurling at Obama, trying to make something stick. This is one of the more absurd comments I've heard and the really crazy thing is he's not being laughed off the stage. If anything it is a description of Bush - you know the famous line "This is an impressive crowd: the Have's and Have-more's. Some people call you the elites. I call you my base."
How do the American people who still call themselves Republican, square these types of things?? It boggles the mind.
