Obama/Olbermann ticket?
Keith must be vying for the #2 slot? Maybe this is why he has NEVER questioned Obama's policies and tough questions not answered. I wanna know whats in it for Keith? Media + Olbamaman = bias?

4. Olbermann is a commentator, not a journalist. He does not have to be unbiased.

He was, as long as Hillary was campaigning fairly.

Want to know a secret?

If the table was turned and it was Obama running a negative campaign against Hillary based on fear, Olberman would be ranting against Obama instead of Hillary.

That is the definition of fairness.

14. Obama is running a negative campaign against Hillary based on fear
He's basically called her a bad person and he's said that if we don't vote for him then we can't win (what a wonderful coincidence for him).

17. No. 3am ad is fear and you can't deny it.
Talking about electability is not fear, it's facts and statistics. Or are facts biased against Hillary?

18. The ad was about her strengths, but as always Obama made it all about himself
The man is a total narcissist. And he's attacked her in a vicious personal way. She hasn't made one personal attack against him. Obama's campaign against Hillary has been slimier then Bush's campaign against John McCain in South Carolina in 2000.

19. "The ad was about HER strengths" who's the narcissist?
And no, his campaign against her has not been slimier. In fact, she's the only one who has even been throwing the "slimes". Slimes aren't attacks, which are based on facts like voting record. Slimes are bullshit that scares up votes.

23. Definition: Inordinate fascination with oneself; excessive self-love
So yeah, I guess it is.

26. Jon Stewart is a comedienne. His program airs on the Comedy Channel.
You cannot compare the two,

KO is on a cable NEWS network.

Perhaps you should take your blinders off and give it a try.

29. Keith Never Said That
And the poster did not mean they were on at the same time just that both appear on Fox. Does everything need to be spelled out for you?

I watch his show every night, and I'm not seeing it.

Give me details, huh?

34. More likely than
Hillary/anybody ticket...

At least the top spot on the Obama/Olbermann ticket actually has a chance at the nomination.

How much does a calculator cost these days?
