CNN bias is so overwhelming as to be unbelievable.

Meanwhile, Lehman's challenger, Van Wanggaard, refused to concede. His spokesman told the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel the campaign would wait for results to be examined before making any decision.

"We owe it to all of Senator Wanggaard's supporters and the voters of Wisconsin to thoroughly examine the election and its results and act accordingly once we have all of the information," Justin Phillips told the newspaper.

The Wisconsin legislature will be out of session until after the general election in November, when 16 of the body's 33 seats will be up for grabs, meaning any new Democratic majority would be fleeting.






Because to CNN there is no way the (D)s can retain their seats after the November election?

1. CNN has been trying to take over Fox's audience for a while now.

I don't watch CNN. I find Blitzer and King to be insufferable idiots. Blitzer has his head so far up Pat Robertson's butt, that he breathes for him, and when he's not busy with that, he is a stenographer for AIPAC. King is a useful idiot of the same cut as David Gregory. He's probably Rove's other dance partner.

Even if they didn't show any bias, their hosts are really boring and untalented. Blitzer's voice puts me to sleep and King must be some executive's son-in-law.

Throw in all those goofy "high-tech" graphics, and CNN looks like a parody of itself.

Opinions are not news, and a question should not be a paragraph.

they hired Glenn Beck they lost all credibility. I rarely ever watch CNN. In their desperate attempt to attract the Fox audience, they alienated the more rational audience they once had. Which is why shows like Beck's had such low numbers they finally had to cancel him. And Erin Brown, the Goldman Sachs girl, has an audience of around 80,000.
