Right on cue. MSNBC's Tamron Hall's teaser for her upcoming hour. She will be discussing the Rolling Stone interview. This is what MSNBC got out of the article--evidently the only thing they got out of the article.

1. If the base doesn't vote - they are to blame for losing
if they don't care if a dem or repub gets elected why should anyone else?

2. The base will vote. It is the young people who are not yet engaged.

Chuck Todd just said on MSNBC this is what their polling shows today. This is why President Obama is speaking to thousands of college students today in Madison, Wisconsin.

3. A person who doesn't vote is nobody's base. A person who votes
third party is certainly no Democrat. I'm not gonna waste my time on those losers. Seems to me that the media is hell bent on suppressing turnout. Gee, I wonder why...

4. They did the same thing in the 2008 primaries

They played down Obama's popularity and obvious lead. Then they created
the Palin monster just for some faux drama since McCain was going to get
his ass kicked.

This time around, they don't care if they are obvious, which is really disturbing.

5. Any Dem who doesn't vote, shares the blame.
