on meet the press this morning he smashed an egg on his own head (seriously, he did) and when asked about a "mandate" for president bush he replied, "the only politician i know with a 'mandate' is jim mcgreevey."

What point was he trying to make with the egg?
russert showed him predicting a 52-47 popular vote win for kerry in, i think, july of this year on mtp. in response he smashed an egg on his own forehead to show that he literally had egg on his face.

Papa I saw the egg on the face moment. He's funny, you have to hand it to him. I can't believe the routine he and his wife Mary do on every show. It's creepy. How do they live together?
i speculated a while back that they are in fact complete mercenaries who have callously worked out an agenda by which they can always have a steady source of income and effect some influence in the corridors of power no matter who holds office.
Either way, they probably have amazing post-debate sex.
Man date---that's pretty funny. And as for the egg, I have always been a fan of theatrics. At least he has a sense of humor in all of this madness.
Jrb: If there's one thing I DON'T want to picture, it's Jimmy and Mary in the sack, or even thinking about the sack. Their marriage used to fascinate me, but I think Papa's right: mostly, they just corner the market. Mary remains as humorless as ever, and Jimmy is, as Brenda Blethyn says in NIGHT MOTHER, just "creepy-strange!" (Those cheek bones! I can't shake the image of Jim Carrey in THE MASK every time I look at poor Carville. He needs carbs, and fast.)
I saw the interview, and thought the McGreevey comment was a low blow, you should excuse the expression.
Yeah, the two of them creep me out, too. They are so polar on so many issues that they seem to feel strongly about that I can't imagine that NOT getting in the way at some point.
