Dobbs: "2 weeks ago conventional wisdom was that Dems would soar to victory"
"That is now in doubt as the races are tightening blah blah blah blah."
They have Candy Crowley staking out "Missoura" doing her best to rally the Talent vote by pointing out how the Michael J. Fox ads have not changed public opinion blah blah blah blah. It's all so predictable and mind-numbing after a while.
16. What about the Dem leadership? Shouldn't they be saying something?
Lou dobbs is just one show. All the Dems have to do is get on TV and say something. If this election gets stolen, it will be because of lack of leadership!
4. They are just creating a need to watch them. No one turns in to a blowout.
What happens if a baseball game is 10-1 in the second inning? Or a Superbowl is 35-0 at halftime? These big media outlets MUST create a need for people to watch.
6. Lou's entitled to his own opinions, but he's NOT entitled to his own facts.
I trust Charlie Cook's review of the situation. Charlie says there's no way the repukes will be able to turn these numbers around before the election and the Dems will take 20 House seats. Charlie does this for a living. Lou Dobbs doesn't.
Look closely at the game he's playing...trying to be the populist and the "champion of the middle class". Not bad for a guy who shilled non-stop in the 90's for his beloved Wall Street and the corporate robber barons who turned him from a cub reporter into a celebrity. I've never trusted Doobies intentions and now I think I see why. He sees O'Reilly's ratings and this is what he wants to tap into...masking the agenda in the trojan horse of "standing up for the Middle Class". Has he yet to out a major corporation that profits from those "aliens"? Nope...easier to hammer on the Mexicans. When he deals with electronic voting, does he cite Diebold's heavy connections to the GOOP? Nope...tries to tie Hugo Chavez and help in what I'm sure we'll soon hear of Repugnicans screaming the "elections were hacked".
This is no longer a "newscast", it's a advocacy show and hopefully the folks here at DU can keep that in mind and the agenda that Lou Doobies is trying to promote.
The Dems will be in the lead for months by double digits, but during the last two weeks, the GOP "miraculously" starts showing up ahead or neck-to-neck with the Dems in the polls. Mysterious, isn't it?
