Anyone see the Hart focus group on CSPAN?
Talk about depressing. It was 12 or 13 voters from Missouri, the majority liked Bush better than Kerry. Many had no idea where Kerry stands on anything and think he will just say what you want to hear. The one real liberal there said he thought Kerry would lose. Talk about a punch in the gut.

1. It should be interesting when they reinterview them after the debate
I think you will see some changes in attitude.

2. I agree with X-rays, they will change their minds once they watch the
debates. Kerry is going to get his ideas out there.

4. Maybe they
think it makes better tv for them to go into the debates as Bush supporters and come out of them as Kerry supporters? There will be more drama that way.

9. By they I meant the
media. They may have tried to pick people that fit a particular mode thinking that it would be better theatre. Or the whole group could be actors. I don't know. I do know that in the 1970's a lot of studio audiences and stuff were comprised mostly of out of work actors. Anyway, I am just saying that "they" (the media) could try to stack the deck and that I certainly would not put it past them. I never trust them. But of course there is no proof of any wrong doing.

6. Keep watching - the press is now commenting.

They are appalled that the group knew nothing about Kerry other than info from negative ads.

10. Journalists without irony
At the end of the focus group the "journalists" sat around talking about what the participants had said and what it meant.

Assholes! Don't they understand that those people were just a reflection of what those very so-called "journalists" have created?

It's mindblowingly amazing. The "journalists" create and distribute the information to the public. Then the public pukes back what they have been told and the "journalists" are shocked, shocked I tell you about how poorly John Kerry is doing.

We are indeed far, far down the rabbit hole.
