Popularity rank 6 #16. No drama

February 8, 2010

GRIMM: Ma'am, our polling is-
DEB: Let's... be BOLD here. Let's take the "NO DRAMA" approach. Let's not let them POLITICIZE this.

GRIMM: But at the very least we-
DEB: NO DRAMA!

LINDA: What's the "no drama" approach?
GRIMM: "No DRAMA"? "No DRAMA" means "IGNORE IT and hope it just GOES AWAY".

GRIMM: "No DRAMA" means "sit idly BY while decades of PROGRESS are HIJACKED by bitter right-wing IDEOLOGUES"!
LINDA: That's... pretty dramatic.

Popularity rank 7 #29. A tough Democrat

March 16, 2010

GRIMM: Rep. Geminari, you cannot talk to the Tea Partiers. You'd be ripped to shreds.
DEB: I think you underestimate me.

DEB: I'm a tough cookie. I can handle myself at a protest. What if I just go out there, look them in the eyes...

DEB: And explain to them that the Stimulus Package is not an enormous expansion of government largesse, but an aggregation of temporary projects designed to triage an ailing economy.

GRIMM: They would disembowel you and sell your bloodied pantsuit on eBay.
DEB: But I'd be SHOUTING it... Or at least raising my voice.

January 9, 2010

GRIMM: Your unfavorables have gone up FIVE POINTS since the pledge incident.
DEB: There's a POLL up?

GRIMM: A push poll posted.
DEB: A PUSH poll? What people push-poll me?

GRIMM: Oh, PLENTY of people push-poll you. PROGRESSIVE people, POPULIST people-
DEB: PROGRESSIVE people push-poll me?

GRIMM: PRIMARILY progressive people push-poll you.
DEB: PREPOSTEROUS!
LINDA: Hey, ABBOTT AND COSTELLO, let's FOCUS!

Popularity rank 9 #17. Full-court press

February 9, 2010

LINDA: OK, it's a full-court press this afternoon on this "no drama" thing, people. We're pushing a media narrative that Rep. Geminari "isn't worried".

LINDA: Let's get her in front of calm backdrops: Coffee shops, parks, long walks on the beach. A full relaxation media tour. But NO, I repeat, NO alcohol.

LINDA: All public statements should have a consistent, breezy language. Minimize hard consonants. And we need a personal trainer to work on her posture.

STAFFER: This is a lot of work to look like we don't care.
LINDA: That's because we DO care. Now... who knows a good smile consultant?
