Rough transcript after the jump:
Murphy: You know, because I come out of the blue swing state government work. Angler, Whitman, Thompson, Mitt Romney, Jeb Bush. And these guys, this is all how you want to (inaudible) this race. You know, just run it up. And it’s not gonna work.
Noonan: It’s over.
Murphy: Still, McCain can give a version of the Lieberman speech to do himself some good.
Noonan: I saw Kay this morning
Murphy: They’re all bummed out. I mean, is she really the most qualified woman they could have turned to?
Noonan: The most qualified? No. I think they went for this, excuse me, political bullshit about narratives and (inaudible) the picture.
Murphy: Yeah, but what’s the narrative?
Noonan: Every time the Republicans do that because that’s not where they live and it’s not what they’re good at and they blow it.
Murphy: You know what’s really the worst thing about it? The greatness of McCain is no cynicism and this is cynical.

Well, this should be VIRAL in 3…2…1
I saw this over at TPM. Hot mikes can be a dangerous thing. But wow, now we get to here the truth from the horses’ mouths
*hear* not here
Caught telling the truth; how devastating for them.
Great catch, Ian.
digg
It’s over.
Watch the flying Rove-monkeys go after Chuck Todd now, for having “trapped” Murphy and Dolphin-lady into these revelations. Steve Schmidt will call for a meeting with the president of NBC, Pawlenty will cancel this Sunday’s Meet The Press, etc
Yep, the popular election is over. Now they’re simply going to have to STEAL the votes. Again.
We can only hope it’s over.
MODS — Don’t know about other people, but since yesterday FDL has been very, very slow and error-prone (404s, etc.). Anything you’ve been up to behind the scenes? Or Denial of Service? Nothing on SiteMeter that indicates particulatly heavy usage.
Political bullshit about “narratives”. . .and meme’s! This is fucking awesome.
The amazing thing is that no one will ever ask Noonan and Murphy about this. They, Noonan especially, will go on prattling away about the awesomeness of McCain and how Palin is the game-changer and this and that and my guess is no one will ever say “Hey, when you didn’t know the mike was on you called it bullshit and said the race was over.”
And they will continue to convince voters of positions that they don’t even hold themselves, just so that the “right” people can stay in power.
holy shit! someone hot miked the kewl kidz lunch table
bwaaaahaaaaahaaaaa !
CNN – Doghouse
NBC – Doghouse
MSNBC – Doghouse
ABC -
CBS -
FAUX – Lets play kissy face
The day started out with a Republican onslaught but that has been completely neutralized by the ”it’s over” comment.
Awesome!
Tonight will be fun.
Maybe no one will ask them about this in front of a microphone or a camera, but I’ll bet they get plenty of questions about it privately.
And I’m pretty sure they won’t be offering commentary on MSNBC this evening, and might even be gone for the rest of the convention.
Ditto – pour the gas to the toobz
Compare Noonan’s column just today, can you can BULLSHITTER?
http://online.wsj.com/article/declarations.html
You guys are always ahead of the curve. I just saw this linked in the comments in another board and said immediately the video needs its own post! Then I sped over here to barge in with the news and there’s Ian with the goods!! WTG.
Oy, the schadenfreude! And (was it Mike Murphy) saying Palin’s an insulting choice? Thank you!
Well gee whiskerlickers, Mr. befuddicator, does anyone else think that could have accidently on purpose went outed onto the live wire thingies?
blame the tech guy. prolly union.
It’s been awhile since we’ve been treated to quite such a train-wreck of a convention. giving the hamsters hiccups? or did they get into the kewlaidpunchbowl? rowrrrrrr & meow.
*hic*
I agree–it’s been very frustrating trying to read the posts. I thought it was just my internet service, but clearly it’s more than that.
Holy crap…. That is f’ing funny as hell.
Would you buy a used car from these people
But Noonan’s bullshit is so pretty and sparkly…
I want to see Palin in a fringed cowboy jacket and skirt like Annie Oakley and come out to the tune of “Mariah”. I think that would be a showstopper.
dang. knew we should’a stocked up on popcorn.
is she with the secret name still supposed to speak tonight, or will she trip on her train of lace? That is real lace, isn’t it?
hey Joe. Ix-nay the polish for the tiara. cue the hook. ready on 3.
Noonan:
“The most qualified? No. I think they went for the political bullshit about narratives.”
Train wreck. Still the most amazing tidbit today is Josh Marshalls report that the cancellation of the King interview was because they could not answer effectively the Campbell Brown question. Paraphrased “How can you justify your entire campaign up to now built on “experience” and pick Palin? Two days and they’re still stumped.
and reddit
aw noonan, we luv ye so….
but yer such a tease! shame shame shame.
an Epidemiologist would have fun tracking this strange rational thought pathogen as it makes it way through Kewl Kidz High.
believe Mrs Greenspan was Patient Zero, followed by Joe Klein, spreading slowly, mutating in Broder’s column today before the virus’ made it’s jump to the general quizzling population
I wondered what world Murphy came from. Oh, he is from the neo-con nitwit swinging governor world of “hookers and blow”. But Kay Baily Hutchison, she is miserable, she is bummed. Sarah Barracuda got no qualifications. Nooner is sad in a whiny way. :(
Hmm very interesting … Did you know that Troopers dub Mat-Su area the meth capital of Alaska
Some Family Values there Sarah….. THIS is while she was mayor!
Looks like the right wing will need to institute affirmative action for their high IQ candidates.
For every ten morons like Palin, one reasonably intelligent person must be selected to run. Peggy can be the decider.
You do crack me up.
umm, was that the ultra-pious Church Lady Nooner saying “bullshit”?
Damn, now she’s gonna have to take another trip to Rome. I mean, if you’re Nooner, you can’t just give your confession to a non-connected and lowly preist, right?
- uh – guys. don’t forget. Labor Day weekend. garbage pickup delayed a day, at least in our neighborhood.
Can’t we fit another bag in before tomorrow, at least of recycled confetti?
Dave Neiwert upstairs
is she with the secret name still supposed to speak tonight, or will she trip on her train of lace?
by “secret name”, are you referring to McLame? ‘Cause you just know that when Mrs. Palin’s speech is over, Johnny is gonna run out to
feel her upgive her a big hug.Maybe she’ll slap him.
‘cuse me, that’s Pariah and it’s Chimpy’s closing number :D
Did you catch the little gop factoids at the bottom of CNN’s screen? The Republican party voted against slavery before they were for it. They voted against repealing prohibition because they were too drunk to know which vote to cast…etc.
Funny that this comes out of the corrupt mouth of Lady Bullshite Narrative her own self….
LOL!
say, just whut WUZ mzzz annieoakley’s talent gig in the pageants? Anyone?
don’t write er off yet. bet she shewts straiter thn that noble canned-quail hunter hidyholin’ out off yonder this week.
goosey goosey DUCK!?!
I hope he does. We’ll hear the collective gasps of all the folks watching who will immediately go “Eeewwwww! That’s Gross!” as they see the wrinkly old white haired guy groping the former beauty queen on national TV
Randi Rhodes is taking about this, the Nooner’s “Bullshit”.
the latter, and she almost did once’t this week awreddy. methinks he’d best be on the side of the angels the rest of this week. lawsy whut a long week!

I believe she played the flute.
ah mannnnn! that’s gonna hurt!
Ah, yes. The big ”gaffe”, when someone accidentally tells the truth.
If it’s Wednesday at the RNC, it’s
OPEN MIC NIGHT AT THE IMPROV!”
FYI:
There was no vetting. NADA. NONE
http://www.azcentral.com/members/Blog/filmex/32040
you’re still assuming it was an accident?
think deeper grasshopper.
what does your inner wisdom radiate into your gloriously endowed brain?
does’t thou dare speak the words??
Johnny? Stephen? What say you?
Please come down to the front of the class so all can hear.
Maybe McCain prayed, so vetting was not needed. Republics know that God is on their side only…God and Dibold that is.
According to the ultra-conservative New York Post, Levi’s My Space page boasts, “I’m a f*ckin’ redneck who likes to snowboard and ride dirt bikes. I live to play hockey. I like to go camping and hang out with the boys, do some fishing, shoot some (inappropriate term) and just f*ckin’ chillin’ I guess. Ya f *ck with me I’ll kick your ass.”
Is this true? I certainly hope so!
Noonan proved she knows she’s lying every time a reporter is asking her a question on the air. I wonder if Chimpy can make that distinction?
Whaaaa? Broder got the rational thought disease?? Link-y please!!
He’s a 17 year old hokey player, you think that this is somehow exceptional?
hockey
They say McSame is going to appear on Letterman/Leno shows to show he is just a regular guy. Guess now he can be billed as the comic act.
Dunno, but “hokey” player might be somewhat apropos as well.
This one time, at band camp…
This is getting picked up all over the place. Oops.
Cindy said there was alot of vetting…just because the media didn’t know, doesn’t mean it wasn’t happening. Well vetted; she and “my husband” had been talking about the possibility for months. “My husband and I” talk about everything. (Cindy is getting lots more face time.)
Including a couple of flights downstairs at FDL
It’s “Engler” not Angler. Former MI gov John Engler….
Why the use of the word ’inaudible’ rather than ’F*CK’?
Again…..whomever is able to get this up on the networks needs to do that…..Especially FOX…..WHAT WOULD THE MCSTUPID AND THE GRUMPYOLDPUSSY PARTY SAY THEN???
YOU CAN ONLY SPIN THINGS FOR SO LONG BE4 THE TRUTH ACTUALLY COMES OUT!!
OBAMA/BIDEN08/12
SOUND JUDGEMENT!!
90% OF THE TIME THAT IS ALL THAT MATTERS….AND MCIDIOT CANNOT ESCAPE THAT!!
Brown said last night the funny thing was that the question was very easily answered and she was right. Palin directs the Nat. Guard for fires and floods and stuff. Like any other governor. That’s all Tucker had to say. But they’d rather stick with absurd bullshit that this somehow improves her foreign policy cred and that’s just impossible to sell. Brown was right. If they’re trying to make a point that she has hands on experience running things, all they had to do was tell the truth but they want to make her out like she’s assisting Petraes or something. I guess it’s called overreaching.
I noticed that too and can’t imagine why. because she’s white and they want to contrast that with Michelle who’s black. as if we didn’t know that already?
Oh lordie, what a catch on that video!!! You know, some of the talking heads may actually have been issued with brains after all. Of course, theie on-air vacuity, by contrast, proves how vain they are and how obedient to the Almight Dollar they have become. Edward R. Murrow they ain’t.
But “OVER”? McCain “cynical”?
The NYT is trying to put lipstick on the pig today, but even they may see the light … well, maybe not. No idea how they got so badly sold out.
