1. kick

[libertee]

2. if any of us is tough on Obama..we're racist...

[rodeodance]

4. I think that is true for the media also

[ElsewheresDaughter]

14. agreed

[papau]

12. When young and kid became "boy" for Obama pretend purposes, any who resist became racist

[adapa]

17. And we're ridiculed if we bring up sexism--Remember the "iron my shirt" heckler, what if someone

shouted to Barack, "shine my shoes"

That'd be a two week story. The iron my shirt comment was cute- a humor line

TELL ME

WHAT"S the BLOODY DIFFERENCE??

3. Does Clinton whine about the press?

Clinton Supporters No 0%
Obama Supporters Yes 99%

That's all this PEW Poll proves.

5. Life is tough on the Love Boat. Sometimes you get sea sick

[TexasObserver]

6. All that means is that the 31% supporting Clinton are cry babies like her

[robbedvoter]

7. Hillary does not have a victim strategy likr this one:

Quick guess: "They attack me - vote for me "- whose official strategy is it? Which candidate's?

[rodeodance]

8. oh another OBAMAbaby whining about chinton surpports AGAIN!!

[marcellobarrios]

9. Not necessarily

Among those 31% there could perfectly be many Obama supporters.

[TexasObserver]

15. No, it couldn't and that's an absurd suppositon on your part.

Find any Hillary supporter who doesn't think she's treated unfairly by media. You can't do it.

[marcellobarrios]

18. the poll itself tells you that most Hillary supporters think the media has been fair to her

Think about it: At the time of the Pew poll, the Democrats were split about 50-50 in voter preference for Obama and Clinton.

But only 31% of all polled said that the media has been too tough on Hillary, while 53% said it's been fair.

This means that there are, contrary to what you said, many Hillary supporters that believe the media has been fair to her.

But my point is, MORE people believe it has been too tough on her than those who believe it has been too tough on Obama, and that includes many Obama supporters.

11. Needs a REC

[Little Star]

13. k&r

[OHdem10]

16. Who answered this poll????? Obama has been pushed to

the top unvetted. No questions asked.

[rjx]

19. The press picks on Clinton more because

they have good reason to.

[Kahuna]

20. Exactly. "Picking on" is exposing Billary lies. How dare they! nt

[marcellobarrios]

22. No. Picking on is airing "Path to 9-11" and lying about Clinton's global warming comments

And not shutting up about Clinton's "cackle", etc. etc.

[marcellobarrios]

21. But they have always picked on her

Have they always had good reason to?
