13. My take:
the corporate media has been surprisingly easy on both Clinton and Obama so far because if either wins the nomination they have a ready excuse to cover the stolen presidential election of 2008. "The country wasn't ready for" either a woman or an African American, which on its face is more reasonable than the "the religious right turned out in even greater numbers this time around (which turned out not to be true)" they used to cover the Ohio disgrace.

By no means should this influence who we choose. But if we decide to go with either Clinton or Obama we should be prepared for them to use a ready-made excuse to cover a stolen election which on its face would have a certain degree of plausibility. But no matter who we choose, they are going to be playing down and dirty, and we'd better be prepared.
