http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24390690

...In the survey, 43 percent of registered voters say they have major concerns that McCain is too closely aligned with the current administration...

W00T!!! The WSJ none of the less, you guys know, that bastion of progressive ideals surveyed people and they say who cares about Wright relative to McSames ties to Bush!!

Man!! If ANY of you guys can get a hold of Obama with this info it slaps the MsM DIRECTLY in da face!!

Big donors\PACS\Lobbyist are irrelevant, McSame is irrelevant, Hillary's stupidity is irrelevant and now the almighty dumb ass'd lets go kill some Iraqis...woops....Bush did it.... conservative controlled MEDIA is irrelevant!

WE ARE THE PEOPLE WE'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!

GoBama and lets get some change done!!!

Thx

1. I hate to NOT share your optimism

after all those who control the past, control the future and those who control the media control the message...

[uponit7771]

2. After 6 weeks of Wright the message is who gives a damn about him relative to McSames ties to Bush..

...this is important IMHO because after 6 STRAIGHT weeks of this shit people are remaining focused

[quantass]

3. I have to agree with you too

[uponit7771]

5. It goes along with one of the foundationals Obamas campaign runs on; People are smarter than that

[Neshanic]

34. It's like the Kerry fiasco did not exist for some people.

[quantass]

4. K&R

[CatsDogsBabies]

6. Makes sense.

[DearAbby]

7. Oh this gives

this gal's ol ticker a kicker...I am gaining faith in the American people. They will not fall for this bullshit! :bounce:

[Cha]

8. Take that and put it in your

pipe, hilary.

[merwin]

9. That's poorly worded. Is McCain not concerned with Wright?

Or are Americans more concerned with McCain's relationship with Bush than his relationship with Wright?

:)

[uponit7771]

11. Thx, fix....It gives me a slight bit of hope honestly, Americans are paying attention

[merwin]

28. I was just joking around, but thanks for fixing it :)

I'm sure there's a number of people here that may have taken it the way i was describing.

[grytpype]

10. Holy Jeremiah, maybe there's hope for this Godforsaken country after all...

[uponit7771]

12. Yeap, goes along with the; America is smarter than that. Premise the Obama campaign is predicated...

...off of.

[JCMach1]

13. More Americans concerned over a nuclear bomb than a hand grenade...

there should be a law against stupid poll questions.

[uponit7771]

15. The media sure has blown this out of proportion though and maybe Obamas response has too

[JCMach1]

17. We will be waiting a long farking time for the media to ever do the right thing

[uponit7771]

19. yeap

[JCMach1]

29. They seriously 'artificially' built-up Obama... I think he would have been fine

on his own merits. However, they portrayed him as something else. Now, just as moronically, they are attempting to shred him.

Ultimately, that is a lose/lose situation.

Even IF Hillary were to get the nomination, the worm would turn on her as well... :(


But, no doubt, the 'war hero' (sponsored by General Electric) will have no such problems.

[TragedyandHope]

14. 80% of Americans think the country has gone in the wrong direction

over the past 8 years.

McCain doesn't have a chance.

[uponit7771]

16. Love your pic!!! He'd prolly take the job too

[nichomachus]

18. Never talk about McCain

without mentioning Bush in the same breath. Always connect McCain and Bush -- especially when talking to independents.

Our goal should be that by November they are always spoken of together.

20. "Wright" and "Bitter" for Obama; NAFTA flip-flops and Bill Clinton for Hillary-- the negatives.

Obama Edges Into National Lead; Voters Concerned About Wright, Hillary On NAFTA
By Greg Sargent - April 30, 2008, 7:09PM
The new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds that Obama has edged back into a national lead over Hillary.





* 36 percent have major concerns that Clinton seems to change her position on some issues (like driver's licenses for illegal immigrants and the North American Free Trade Agreement, which her husband signed but which she now opposes)

* 34 percent say they're bothered by Obama's "bitter" remarks

* 32 percent have a major problem with the Illinois senator's past associations with Wright and the 1960s radical William Ayers

* 27 percent have serious concerns that Bill Clinton would have too much influence on U.S. policy decisions if his wife is elected

21. 43 percent of registered voters need to KNOW it!

Dems are fired up this year. Whether or not the MSM gives a shit about McSame, there's no way anybody makes it to election day without hearing about McSame's connections to Bush - even if I gotta mortgage my house and buy a fucking commercial myself!

[barack the house]

22. Keep donating to DNC the ads are workng. DNC we gotta link these 2 boogers.

How folks can't see the obvious without the ads, I'll never know but whatever it takes.

[Arugula Latte]

23. I have to think that a good chunk of the electorate sees the ridiculousness of the Wright coverage

The MSM has spent exponentially more on this silly issue than they did on the reasons Bush wanted to invade Iraq in '02/'03. I think the corporate media has overplayed the Wright stuff to the point where even people who aren't "on" to the complicity of the media are thinking -- more of this crap? Are you kidding me?

24. Rip Van Winkle (the American public) has awakened

:thumbsup:

25. Fox had some polls tonight. Scott Rasmussen and Pollster

from American?? Anyway Obama is losing white vote in NC. They said
it is as if they flipped in a couple of days.

Fox News Dynamics
70 % of Americans believe Obama has been damaged
64 % of Democrats believe Obama has been damaged.

[uponit7771]

33. 400 person sample, the poll was ridiculous and Rasmussen has lost his credibility

[BenDavid]

26. Again I say look at the sampling numbers. Again NBC?WallStreet

have added more blacks to the sampling and for NBC's justification to see what the black community is feeling towards obama....very bad ass polling if you ask me.......hell, that's like asking a room full of hrc supporters who do they like in the election. only 50 are able to answer, but that 50 sure as hell would make HRC higher rated and obama less.....

i have always said look at these polls and see how they sample and who they sample and what numbers.....

[democrattotheend]

27. Do you understand what an oversample is?

An oversample is when in addition to the regular sample, they do an oversample of one group to get statistically significant results for that group. But they then either use only some of the interviews from the sample or weight the survey to accurately reflect the right composition of the population.

I work for a labor union, and when we do polls we sometimes do an oversample for Ohio so we can study the national results and study Ohio separately. But the audience for the Ohio oversample is usually selected separately from the national sample, and is analyzed separately from the national data, so the national data does not overrepresent Ohio.

31. Why are you ranting about "blacks?"

Where do you see anything in that article about race?

:shrug:

[ShortnFiery]

30. Democratic KICK
