Had Obama "only" raised $30 million in June, the media would be all over it this morning |
|
He raised a whopping $52 million dollars in mostly small donations, and of course, the MSM is ignoring that fact. It simply doesn't fit with their meme that Obama is bleeding support.
Fuck 'em.

1. You should have just heard Chuck Todd. |
|
He tried to explain why $52M just doesn't matter in the scheme of things, though he did admit that Dems had more than enough money to support Congressional races as well as the prez campaign, unlike the rethugs. They're continuing to try to make this appear to be a horserace, when it's looking more and more like it isn't.

2. The MSM is continuing to undermine Obama and dems and build up |
|
McCain and the repukes. According to the fucking assholes in the MSM, every week is worse for Obama than the preceding one, and every week is a decent or good one for McCain.

It would have been, "Has Obama peaked too soon?"
When I talk to average teevee joe, they have the perception that Obama is losing ground and mcLame is overtaking him. THey are scared that McLame may win, so I guess that can help fuel people to work harder and GOTV.
It's still f'ed up.

7. They aren't covering the fact that the RNC and McCain take big donations |
|
Edited on Thu Jul-17-08 08:41 AM by NC_Nurse
from lobbyists and such and that Obama doesn't either.
They were all over it when he declined public financing - but now they give no attention to who's donating to each of them.
Assholes.
