13. Although there may be a point in between...
Edited on Wed Jan-09-08 12:45 AM by RiverStone
Outright fraud and hysteria.

There has been plenty of anecdotal evidence which suggests Hillary gets a disproportionate amount of media coverage. I can assure you, every major network ran Hillary's misty eyed emotional moment repeatedly yesterday.

Barack was expected to lose NH by a large margin for most of the past 6 months; it has only been in the past few days that Hillary became the underdog per her 3rd place finish in Iowa.

I don't think there is some vast collusion going on to rig the polls, yet I also sense there is much to how, who, and when the media spins the message. Someone in a control room, or CEO penthouse, makes those decisions. The tail does wag the dog - at least sometimes.

Obama falling short by only 2-3% could have also been a very big surprise (and story) in NH - but it was not spun that way.

There are shades of grey Sir.


peace~:)
