3. A Democrat resorting to repeating right wing talking points is difficult to support.
Sorry Hillary.

That doesn't mean I won't vote Democratic, just that I am very disappointed in her.

6. Those 3 people are the reason why I watch CNN's Election coverage during primaries.
They do a very good job. It appears many agree. CNN's ratings are up.

8. This was just opposite the Lou Dobbs Talking Heads - Wish I had a video of them!!!.....
Edited on Fri Apr-11-08 10:32 PM by 1776Forever
I saw some idiots on Lou Dobbs (he was not there but the woman who takes over for him was) that all said this comment was a 10 on a scale of 1 to 10 for trouble for Obama and one of them (a supposedly Democratic expert) said it was an 11! What BS!!! I think we need to tell them they are not going to be able to make this into something it is not!!! I am tired of the MSM when it comes to trying to influence people without telling them the full story!!!

Cafferty and Crew did give some very good commentary and for that they are going to gain my viewer ship!

31. just a suggestion....
....you should probably NEVER give fox news ratings....stick to CNN, the less we watch fox the better we all can stay out of this mud/spin, and the closer we get at making FOX news the lowest rated cable news channel....

19. I sure did.
She is just so mean and nasty--ugh. She's the one who is elitist and looks down on the people of PA. She pictures the people of this country just like Bush does--hasn't got any idea of what they are going through.

15. Well they see this as i do and I live in Western Pa.
Many people who have had to get by with very little and have watched their jobs go overseas and their paychecks shrink or become nonexistent have reason to be bitter and anger at the status quo.

25. Wow Hillary, you have JUMPED THE SHARK - you blathering fool
Barack said people are bitter, they are! To hear Hillary say those words as if Obama was saying Pennsylvanians were NOT hopeful, hard working, etc is such a SLIMEY MOVE by her - that Cafferty really nailed it for me - "and I can read the damn thing and figure it out!"



Goodness Hillary, shut your yap - you are vile in your twisting of the truth and I'm SO proud of these 3 analysts on CNN slamming her on this!

Obama the ELITIST? HA! Nice try richy rich Hillary!

26. they should have had someone from the Clinton campaign on also..
I agree that this was a good analysis of the situation but i wish that they would have had a Clinton supporter included in the discussion. Its always good to hear both sides and multiple points of view, imo. Without having all sides represented it opens the door for people to claim that they (CNN) are being bias.

36. No news here.
CNN has been having an Obama fest since this campaign started.

Let's hope they don't bail on him for the GE. If they continue to attack his opponent: McCain, as well as they have Clinton... he just might win.

38. Every note of Hillary's voice drips with insincerity. If you can't see that...
I can't help you.

Maybe some people have more advanced bullshit detectors.

To me, the go into the red when Hillary speaks.

45. Amazing. Here you all sit, clapping in glee as the vilify a democrat
Why are they vilifying Clinton when she misspeaks, but praising and defending Obama?

Why is the propaganda believed?

Why are seemingly intelligent progressives allowing them to get away with it--ney cheering while they do it?

Amazing.

Breaking: Real Reporters respond to Clinton and McCain Lies
by paddy henry
Fri Apr 11, 2008 at 08:56:15 PM PDT
Three senior CNN political reporters show their disgust with Clinton Inc and McCain. It suggests that some in the media realize how important this election is and want it covered fairly. I think this is worth either recommending or I would suggest this video is added to the diary at the top of the list.

ACTION ITEM: Email this and the Obama response to everyone in your email address book. Do It. Do It. Do It. Do It.

UPDATE: Also respond on the comment boards of Wash Post, MSNBC, Politico and all the Penn and Indy Papers!!!!

the same response...no apparently not the third commentator did her bit to substantiate the conventional wisdom from inside the castle walls
