Let's campaign for equal Biden / Palin coverage |
|
We need to all start emailing and calling the MSM to ask them to give equal coverage to Biden and Palin.
Enough with the fascination for the Republican VP. Biden is out on the trail, making all sorts of statements and the MSM are not covering them.
We need to call them on that and use it as a proof that they are not fair.
We know they are not fair, but they hate being caught not being fair.
Let's go!!!

3. While they are all jumping on my "stop yelling" post |
|
Some are missing something that is more important than the way Obama sounds when he yells, which has turned into an insult fiesta against me (at least I said what I thought).
There is no equal coverage law in this country, which has a good and a bad side.
A good side, because we don't have to listen about Bob Barr and Ralph Nader all day.
The bad side is that we hear too much of Palin, not enough of Biden.
The guys has been out there, on the attack, and barely any coverage, so much that some wonder if he is campaigning at all, and rumors about him retiring from the campaign so that Obama can call on Hillary to replace him are out.
Which is not true, the man is out there and it seems that he would have to show up naked and wearing nothing but lipstick to catch any attention.

We hammer at Palin because we hate her more than we like Biden, that's a sad fact.
The MSMs are just playing everyone and do whatever they need to do to keep this 50/50 until November, for obvious commercial reasons.

6. No, the more coverage that Palin gets the worse she looks. |
|
So I say to the news media, go ahead and cover her all you want. You will just help to pound more nails into her political coffin.

7. The news typically covers what McCrash says, what Obama says, and |
|
what Palin says, and that's it - it's essentially two against one.
