1. OMG...some truth from Tweety about the media and their role in Hyping this mees up!

2. Thanks

I guess I should have known it would be Tweety who would point out the obvious about the Clintons. I turned it all off about a half hour after the polls closed. It's just nothing but nonsensical spin anymore.

3. Obama now relies on the partisinship of Matthews and Oldberman

That says something to me, that the Obama supporters are now posting videos by a man who was once held in universal contempt on DU. You do know that when push come to shove Tweety will be on his knees with his face in McCain's lap. Tweety has always hated Clinton (both of them) and KO is a major league Obama cheerleader. Real objective analysis there from two Hillary haters. Neither of these guys will let objective reality color their beliefs.

So how come Obama can't close the deal, given his huge cash advantage and legions of fanatical supporters who worship the very ground he walks on and the complete backing of of the MSM and the liberal blogosphere?

Unlike Kerry (who just laid down and gave up despite massive evidence of fraud in Ohio) and Gore( who let holy Joe talk him into throwing in the towel way too soon) Hillary will fight to the end. The girl has guts and a never say die attitude. And she may still pull it out. All it will take is a bit more media exposure on the very politically un-savvy Michelle, or more Obama lies about not wanting a total handgun ban.

If Onama wins, good for him, he will have overcome a very worthy adversary and will then be better prepared for the pukes in the GE. Hillary is little Miss Sunshine compared to the GOP attack machine.

4. Dean was dead after finishing third in Iowa but not Hillary.

Portions of the media have been keeping her alive all along.

5. Not a big surprise form Tweety.

He's been a pretty big Clinton basher all along. I'm no fan of Hillary but that guy really does have something wrong with him.

On the other hand, even a broken clock is right twice a day. Not only is it highly unlikely, statistically speaking, that she will ever make up the gap on regular delegates, but it appears the superdelegates have grown more and more alienated from her as this muddy campaign grinds on. That's got nothing to do with what I feel about the candidates, it just seems to be the way things are.

6. the media does keep it going

because it sells ad space. Obama has raised close to a quarter of a billion dollars. you get it ? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

7. The clear truth from Chirs

Chis seemed pissed last night. I appreciate him acknowledging the media's responsibility in misleading the public.

8. singilarpoint

The media wants nothing more than an Obama defeat, a Clinton "victory" and in the end a McCain Presidency. That is their goal.

9. I think the media solidly back Hillary, because she is the establishmet candidate

I've always wondered why the media sucks up to the Government so much, it's like George Carlin put it one time, "have you noticed how the media seems to be the unofficial spokesperson for the Government?". That seems so true, and I believe the media knows what they are going to get with Hillary, and thats rides on Air Force One, press parties in the White House with lobster and expensive wines and cheese, all kinds of access, because the Clintons love attention and the media will gladly drink their kool-aid any day of the week. Obama will probably be much more serious when he's in office and they might loose all kinds of access in the White House, and probably what would happen is old friendships the Clinton's have with certain media elite and big anchors will change, so in that aspect the current power broker's in the media will loose access and will have to start sucking up to a whole new person.
