They are kissing Hillary's @ss on the show today! All of the pundits keep going on and on about how she should continue. Before they were all saying she would have to give up if she did not win Ohio and Texas decisively. Now they are saying, "well...she can lose Texas and then continue!" They are saying there might be an Obama story to come out (ala McCain) that will cause the super delegates to give it to her. So there is no way she can win it but if she holds out they might give it to her. Then Joe Klein was on there saying he feels a NH turn in the air and that women feel sorry that Hillary. They just want to keep the primary going so they will have something to cover. It is all about ratings for them.
One pundit did say he could see Hillary holding on until Denver. He said Barack would be pulling up in his car and Hillary would be banging on his window saying, "Get out! It's not over!" LOL LOL LOL

MSNBC had the best night of its life last week with the "debate."

2. The purpose of the media is to confuse the public ... |
|
The Joe Scarborough show exists for the same reason there's an O'Reilly and a Limpbaugh ... to confuse the public and swing them in the WRONG direction.

3. The meme about Obama having to win both Ohio & Texas in a big way |
|
is now out there on all the cable channels. The Clinton Campaign seems to have a direct line to the cable news folks.
And yes, it is in their best interest to keep this going. More viewers, better ratings, more money for their corporations.

7. Good primary fights = good ratings |

good ratings = more money for MSNBC. That's all there is to this.
