CNN.com finally picks up on Jeep story

Youngstown, Ohio (CNN) - It was like watching a tag team of a popular, political heavyweight and a scrappy contender against one fierce and determined opponent.

On Monday, former president Bill Clinton and Vice President Joe Biden entered the arena - battleground Ohio - and launched a double whammy of pushback against a fresh, yet dubious, claim from Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney. Among the duo's fighting words: essentially accusing Romney of stating "the biggest load of bull;" claiming the Republican nominee will say "anything to win;" and raising a question politicians reserve for only the most egregious arguments: "Have they no shame?"

How many people have to say it is a lie before CNN will believe it? Boy, have they changed. No wonder I never watch them anymore.

"dubious" is at least a start down the path to truthfully exposing Rmoney
to be the baldfaced liar he is.

For the time being, apparently CNN considers this is "too close to call"
