Why is Obama running ads on MSNBC during Sharpton's Politicsnation? Aren't they already Dems?

Or is it to remind them to get out and vote?

Remind who, them??

Ad placement isn't always guaranteed when there are so many ads being placed!

They have no loyalty to each other. They are a house of cards. They are completely Godless and propieters of racism.

your bad spelling is a dead give-away to the site you crawled out from under and slimed your way over here.

According to 2008 exit polls

People who got their news from......... (rough breakdown)

MSNBC-60% Dem/ 40% GOP

CNN-60% Dem/ 40% GOP

FOX-10% Dem/ 90% GOP

While MSNBC is "credited as a liberal network (personally I have no idea where that comes from), about 40% of its audience identifies with the GOP. In fact if I recall Obama actually got a greater percentage of voters from CNN in 2008 (62%/38%) than he did MSNBC. Ironically, ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN and MSNBC all broke pretty close along the lines of 60/40 in favor of Democrats. FOX news was the real outlier being 90% GOP.
