"Was it too much about the Clintons?"
AAARRRGGH

So the MSM has turned on a dime from "Clintons will ruin the convention" to "was it too much about the Clintons?"

Overnight.

F&*cking Matt Lauer.

2. No, they are two great leaders.. and they helped unify the party to that
feel good era of the 90's when Clinton won the white house.. I remeber that convention and I was a young girl.

3. Maybe a little, but at least now it's mostly over and we can go on.

4. It's like they've lived in The Matrix far too long
They are no longer able to rejoin reality.

5. Matt Lauer = Goldilocks.
I'm guessing that everything will be just right next week in Minneapolis for Goldilocks.

6. Not in my opinion, because they know how to move a crowd.
They are pros. I switched to C-Span to watch the Convention. That lowered the stress level, too.

7. Not if you actually watched the convention instead of narrowing it all down to a few speeches

8. "Are we full of shit or really full of shit?!" --- What MSM should ask.
They could spend every waking hour on that.

9. the msm is very slow. something about the job makes them so.
I find I get the best results when I view their antics as punch lines to inane "jokes". Oh and in accordance to their actual mission of never providing any significant information any action that runs counter to that agenda must be subtly ridiculed. I suggest ignoring the taking heads and seeking out multiple sources for news and information, then make up your own mind.

10. They make a mockery of the word...
"news"! They don't report news or even intelligent commentary. The pick at scabs until they bleed for the sake of ratings. Turn it off and send them an email saying "BUB BYE"!

11. The media is so obvious...did you see Claire McCaskill say...
...that the only long faces at the convention were the media?

The media just make this crap up to feed the beast.

12. Exactly
They have been SPOILING for a fight, and they were sick at heart that they didn't get it.

My SO said to me Tuesday night as Hillary wound up her speech: "hear that sound? It's the sound of Republican heads exploding."
