The Corporate media is pushing the meme that the voters are rejecting Obama
Edited on Tue Nov-03-09 04:42 PM by ej510
even though Corzine was hated before Obama won the Presidency and Obama has a high approval rating in all of the states. This is not a vote against Obama. I do not agree with Obama all of the time, but 90% of time I do. Once again the corporate media is trying to drum up a story and once again Faux started it.

1. Surprise, surprise!
Considering the rampant corruption in New Jersey, it would be impressive if he reelected, no matter who campaigned for him.

2. The media will do whatever they can to take down Obama by 2012
Death by a thousand cuts is their strategy.

Obama's approval rating in both Virginia and New Jersey remains well over 50%. That right there tells you these elections are not about Obama.

4. The Democratic candidate in VA is pathetic. Obama could have done nothing to help here.
Believe me, this is no reflection on the President whatsoever.

CNN is barely news and MSNBC, ABC, CBS, NBC fall into the same category. FAUX is pure Propaganda right along with Rick Santelli and CNBC.

7. Same painfully shallow red v. blue crap
The national media is treating VA and NJ governorships as if they're national referendums on Obama... Give me a break. Nobody on the planet votes like that.
