Are we going to let Wolf Blitzer & Fiction CNN pick our nominee

Edited on Sun Jan-13-08 04:09 PM by surfermaw

so far that is what is going on. If Edward had his name mentioned one third of the times, that Wolf Blitzer and Company has mentioned Hillary and Obama, he would be leading both.. Is this the USA?

3. Bullshit. If Edwards starting leading in the polls they would have talked about him.

It doesn't work the other way around.

6. Cart before the horse

That's not the way the news media works. They choose their Dem candidates based on what the GOP wants and ignore or ridicule the ones the GOP doesn't like.

I've been involved in political campaigns for a long time, and this is SOP for them.

8. it`s what will sell the most soap.

black v white , man v woman, old v new and edwards is odd man out. the republicans can`t sell a bar of dollar store soap so the msm is packaging the democratic race as their advertisers money making machine.

they took out the most progressive in the first debate .they ignore the next progressive edwards hoping he will go away...

9. Did Huckabee get any media recognition before he won?

It is ridiculous the excuses people make for their candidate when the people reject them.
