“Coming from the president’s own mouth are some of these statements,” O’Donnell said. “When he says redistribute the wealth. This is what’s turning off so many independent voters and so many common sense Democrats when they’re taking a closer look at what the two candidates have to offer. You don’t need stats or professional economists to tell you that gas prices have doubled under this administration, grocery prices have risen.”

You would be taking over the… My mother’s Cuban, right? I could talk a lot about communism to you. I know a lot about it.”
“You’re putting government dollars into the private sector,” O’Donnell replied. “It’s nationalizing these private businesses, it’s sort of, uh…” she trailed off.
“That is not nationalizing,” O’Brien said. “It’s not.” But the two still didn’t see eye-to-eye.
It’s hard to believe that some people lack the capacity to be embarrassed by the shit that comes out of their mouth.
