The moral bankruptcy of ABC news |
|
ABC news started the debate with poll results.
Isn't the idea to watch the debates and then decide?
These early poll results are clearly related to early campaign contributions.
A very strong argument can be made that anyone that contributed to a campaign for president before the first debates either had their heads up their butts or perhaps they were trying to buy influence. Before the first debates how could one know the positions of the candidates or the important issues of the campaign. How could one know if Gore was going to run or not? Perhaps Jesus Christ was coming down from the heavens to run in this campaign.
Should these early contributions made on vague and incomplete information be deciding this election?

1. Indeed, thought it was tacky, too. |

And speaking of ABC News - and I do like Charlie Gibson - it had several reports last week about the increase of violent crime in American, yet not a single word about the shortage of local police force or of national guards..

3. That's the principal way of marginalizing a candidate. (NT) |
