2. Yes, most of the talking heads seem to be following that 'mantra'
Of course it has served them well in the past. In fact in a perverse way, I think Obama has a lot to thank Bush & Rove for. If they hadn't run the most underhanded campaigns and given us one of the most hated and biased presidencies, many people in America would not have opened their eyes and looked beyond the comfortable confines of the familiar.

So their constant habit of shouting the loudest from the rooftops and constantly crying wolf has now caused us to distrust MOST of what they say and seek out the truth ourselves. That I think is a major reason why Obama is doing so well. It is the perfect environment for his style to connect with the most voters.
