president obama, clint eastwood, and carl rove. plus, the award for political performer of the year. you re watching the second annual revvie awards only on msnbc. jamie lee curtis?! oh hi, yes. wow you really went all out on the decorations, huh? yeah, but i m so slow taking them down after all the fatty holiday food. but that s normal. what do you mean that s normal? it doesn t have to be. to me normal means feeling good inside. not slow. try some activia. activia helps with occasional irregularity when eaten three times a day. keep a video diary and let me know about your new normal.
referenced, carl rove, shell don addleson, the coke brothers, the super pacts, they didn t win up winning at the end of the day. it was ordinary people who maybe kicked in a couple of bucks, who stood in the long lines, who actually won the election. and that is just a beautiful, encouraging thing for this democracy. so the best trend was big money losing? big money losing. i think the best political trend of this political season was the demise of gay rights as a wage issue. notice, in all three debates, it never came up. it was never even hinted at, in any talk, pro or con, about gay rights marriage, same-sex marriage and i think that s a good thing. okay. i think the best trend is that we saw this year a clear, new electorate.
is near and dear to my heart. the alfred c. sharpton blueberry pie lifetime achievement award. as 2012 draws to a close, we look around and ask ourselves who has the most blueberry pie on his face? there was plenty to go around this year. but there was only one man who could walk away with the revvie. you re not saying obama isn t going to win? i think this is premature. i don t know what the outcome is going to be. but woe eve got to be careful about calling things when we have 991 votes separating the two candidates. yes, yes, carl rove, for predicting mitt romney would winl the electiwin the election 279 electoral votes, for losing $400 million in campaign cash and, of course, for his manic
get latinos to support him. and they don t. so we see less than 25% of the latino electorate voting for mitt romney. especially in the swing states of nevada, colorado, new mexico, even florida, he lost those states because he thought he could do an about face which he couldn t. richard? i m tempted to go with the obvious here. the obvious would be 47%. the obvious would be being honest in front of a bunch of wealthy donors, when you re mitt romney, and thinking no one would pay any attention. how many times had he given that speech? and then that one was recorded? but i m not going to be obvious because it is the revvies. i m going to go with worst political move of the year? everything carl rove spent his money on. oh, that s good. you re stealing my thunder. i could have gonl for the wealthy, elderly. but, you know, there are elderly and they have so much money, who cares. carl rove is the one, the
supposed architect, the supposed genius. so exposed in this election. i agree. without tipping my hand, i have a special recognition for carl rove coming up. i think the worst political move of the year was the republicans engineering on aggressive voter suppression. i think they angered and energized voters that may not have come out. the worst thing to do is to go after people when you want people to remain asleep. i think they woke up a sleeping giant. that was the worst move. had they not done this, i think it would have been a much closer election. but people took it personal and i think it really became a tipping point in the election. yeah, nothing makes someone want to vote than saying you can t vote. then you will do whatever it takes. and to take something from people that was earned and gained with such sacrifice.
