Former McCain campaign advisor Nancy Pfotenhauer (now a "Republican strategist") and Democratic National Committee communications director Karen Finney debate President Obama's economic stimulus package, partisanship and the Fairness Doctrine. Pfotenhauer says Obama made the former President look like "Bush on steroids" and claims there is a lot of "odor" in the stimulus package.

Nancy Pfotenhauer on John McCain "MSNBC Live" 02:40pm Interview TRANSCRIPT: NANCY PFOTENHAUER: [] We focus more on rural, suburban voters is the way we think of it. [] TAMRON HALL: Are you also banking on race, though? [] Because we know that several high profile politicians in Pennsylvania have been blunt about the fact that they think [] that race may come into play here. But your campaign here, do you believe those white male rural voters could come down to the basic issue of race ...

I don't think this was one Nancy Pfotenhauer's better days. Chris Matthews hammered her on not knowing what the Constitution says about the role of the vice-president (in wake of Sarah Palin not knowing either). Bill Burton of the Obama campaign got in one sentence, letting Pfotenhauer twist in the wind. ...

This video features Governor "Beavis" Palin, R-AK and Rep. "Butthead" Bachmann, R-MN and their incredibly stupid remarks. When the Republicans are cornered and surrounded with guns drawn, they don't surrender but pull every dirty smear out of their bag of tricks. 1. Gov. "Beavis" Palin's two idiotic quotes: "We believe that the best of America is in these small towns that we get to visit, and in these wonderful little pockets of what I call the real America, being here with all of you hard ...

On MSNBC this morning, McCain adviser Nancy Pfotenhauer asserted that real Virginia does not include Northern Virginia: I certainly agree that Northern Virginia has gone more Democratic. But the rest of the state — real Virginia if you will — I think will be very responsive to Senator McCains message. MSNBC host Kevin Cork gave Pfotenhauer a chance to revise her answer, telling her: Nancy, Im going to give you a chance to climb back off that ledge — Did you say real Virginia? But Pfotenhauer ...

Nancy Pfotenhauer on John McCain "Happening Now" 12:38pm Commentary TOPIC: Pennsylvania, Virginia, Clintons TRANSCRIPT: NANCY PFOTENHAUER: The last thing we are is undisciplined. I mean obviously as the clock ticks down we have to make very, very precise decisions based on a time clock and on a resource constraint, that by the way Barack Obama doesnt really have since he threw over the side of the boat his promise to the American people to comply with public financing remember, in some of ...
Nancy Pfotenhauer on John McCain "MSNBC Live" 09:30am Commentary TOPIC: taxes, abortion, McCain, spending TRANSCRIPT: NANCY PFOTENHAUER: I think it will [move the polls]. I think that what the American people got to see, a very undiluted distinction of the different paths that these two gentlemen are advocating. You had Senator McCain saying Im gonna keep your taxes low and Im gonna get federal spending under control. [] The man has a very compelling story. And thats why, you know the Obama ...
Nancy Pfotenhauer and Contessa Brewer on John McCain "MSNBC Live" 10:05am Interview TRANSCRIPTION NANCY PFOTENHAUER: [S]enator McCain just revels in the underdog position, if you will.

Nancy Pfotenhauer and Bret Baier on John McCain "America's Election HQ" 12:17am Interview TRANSCRIPTION NANCY PFOTENHAUER: I think that Mr. Lewis' comments were reprehensible. I think the implication somehow of even roughly equating Senator McCain with those comments and their outcome is just beyond the pale and I believe that Senator Obama's campaign has kind of given their typical lackluster, oh well, almost arm's-length distancing from it without ever saying the words that needed to be ...

Nancy Pfotenhauer on John McCain "Fox News Live" 9:14am Interview TRANSCRIPT: NANCY PFOTENHAUER: You can't trust Barack Obama, what he says and what he does are two different things. It ties directly to what he's proposing on the economy. Because he's out there promising the Middle Class a tax cut, when he ran for the Senate he promised a tax cut, and then did nothing to deliver it. He's not going to deliver on any Middle Class tax cut that he's promising right now, at least if past is ...
Nancy Pfotenhauer on John McCain America's Newsroom Interview TRANSCRIPT: MEGYN KELLY: You guys and your attacks about this whole Ayers bit and Governor Palin mentioning Reverend Wright is a clear attempt to distract the American people from the economy.

Nancy Pfotenhauer on Barack Obama "Newsroom" 3:10pm Interview TRANSCRIPT: NANCY PFOTENHAUER: "You know Rick, the whole point is- we've mentioned it at a couple of speeches. Obviously it struck a chord, because Barack Obama's campaign came out and did a pre-emptive negative campaign ad. which is pretty -- pretty interesting from a tactical standpoint. But, you know, the bottom line is we emphasized this because it -- it's part and parcel " [...] "It's very important to draw attention to this ...
Nancy Pfotenhauer and Andrea Mitchell on John McCain "MSNBC Live" 1:35pm Transcription [] ANDREA MITCHELL: His first news conference in six weeks, I think, yesterday. Nobody's been very much out there. NANCY PFOTENHAUER: But we've spent the better part of the last year or so, even the forums that Senator McCain chooses are town halls where you're going to be engaging with people who frankly disagree with you. He's very comfortable in that format and likes to do it. Senator Obama [] tends to ...
Nancy Pfotenhauer on John McCain "America's Election Headquarters" 5:15pm Interview TRANSCRIPT: NANCY PFOTENHAUER: "in 1993, Senator McCain introduced legislation that would have established a regulator for Fannie and Freddie that would have been housed at treasury.

Nancy Pfotenhauer on Barack Obama "American Morning" 07:38am Commentary TOPIC:Obama, Ayers, economy, middle America TRANSCRIPT: NANCY PFOTENHAUER: Most people, most Americans, wouldnt do that. They would think it was bizarre to hang out with someone who basically engaged in terrorist acts aimed against the American people and I think most Americans would question the judgment of someone who thinks its ok to have a political event at this mans house, serve on a six person board with him ...
Nancy Pfotenhauer on John McCain "Good Morning America" 07:08am Commentary TOPIC: Obama, McCain, leadership economy, Ayers TRANSCRIPT: NANCY PFOTENHAUER: As you pointed out Diane, Senator McCain was actually exonerated by the Senate and the democratic council at the time said he had recommended both John McCain and John Glenn be dropped from the initial complaint and the Democrats wouldnt do it because then it would be only democrats who were targeted. But lets talk about the economy because ...

Nancy Pfotenhauer on John MCCain The Early Show Interview TRANSCRIPT: NANCY PFOTENHAUER: With Barack Obama we know very little about this man, he has a very scant record and he frankly hides that record quite frequently on domestic issues particularly, I could tick through a number but, campaign financing, second amendment issues, taxes spending. Hes got, I think, very questionable judgment on foreign issues and hes got these relationships with individuals that I think call into question his ...
