Does anyone else think MSNBC has given WAY more airtime
to the assholes speaking at the RNC? During the DNC it seemed like MSNBC only showed a small portion of the speakers for each evening. No corporate bias whatsoever...

2. Different lineup
These are the major contenders for the GOP nomination -- Romney, Huckabee and Giuliani.

It would be the equivalent of Democrats stringing Hillary, Edwards and maybe Richardson. The networks would have shown that, although possibly not Richardson who was never a serious contender to win the nomination, unlike any of the others.

For some reason we decided to put lesser known speakers in the middle and the networks ignored them. The one strange exception was John Kerry, but I guess the networks considered him dull and irrelevant.

3. They lost in the polls because they talked too much.

5. Maybe... but then again is MSNBC giving the Republicans more rope to hang themselves?
