4. It reminds me of the coverage of John Edwards in 2004. |
|
Obama and Biden are almost entirely disappeared in favor of the beauty queen.

5. McCain just stole Biden's 'Kitchen Table' speech. |
|
OMG, he is fucking stupid, and shameless. He has no message, so he steals Obama/Biden's. I've never seen anything like this.

talking points and strategies for weeks now and pretending as though he came up with them and I believe this is for the people who are now just tuning in and the media is helping him.

I guess demanding equal time won't do any good, since the communication act of the 90's |

9. Opposite used to be true |
|
If you weren't complaining when Obama got a lot more coverage than McCain before the conventions, don't complain too much now.
It's a pendulum. I just hope it swings back our way pretty soon.

13. The conventions are over, and both campaigns should get EQUAL TIME |
|
The reason Obama or the Democrats got more coverage was because no one knew who was going to be the nominee. It was pretty well wrapped up for the republicans who the nominee was
Your damn right I am complaining

10. It's all-Palin, all the time. |
|
Though in truth, some of that is due to the attacks on Palin that creates additional news cycles.
