It surely seems that the Democratic Bloggers have chosen up sides and are acting just like the MSM in ignoring anyone who does not further their candidate's cause.

Even when Edwards makes it onto the MSM there is no recognition of it by TPM and HuffPo.

Makes you wonder....

4. You got that right -
Are you spending more money in SC because it's a do or die situation for you?

Did John Kerry tell you before he endorsed Obama? (he already knew that one, asshat)

and blah blah blah. Wolffe needs to find another career, like maybe with the National Enquirer, he could be Head Asshole.

8. I disagree about Wolfie this time.
Edited on Sun Jan-13-08 09:02 PM by spooky3
He led off with a straightforward question on the economy, playing to Edwards' strength.

Nearly all of the other questions were quite reasonable. The dumb questions were questions that unfortunately many voters, and even a few folks on DU, would have asked, and Edwards was ready for them and handled them perfectly.

I was shocked at how good it was.

3. Message to voters: Edwards doesn't matter.
It's intentional and obvious.

7. Edwards does matter..
and that's why the MSM and HuffPo don't talk about him. They are all entrenched in the little game they play, which has nothing to do with all of us.

6. I'm sticking with Edward to the end ... even if I have to write-in
I've had enough of IPPs being pushed to the curb because big-money/big-government wants to keep us working harder and longer for less and less. Since Nixon, this country has been moving in the wrong direction with regard to being the land of opportunity, justice, equality, and fairness our forefathers intended.

It has gotten increasingly worse with Reagan, the 'Contract with America' (aka the 'Contract to screw Americans'), NAFTA/CAFTA, HMOs (aka Doctors for profit over care), no-bid drugs, defense contracts, etc - ala Bush/Cheney - hey, we've screwed Americans and they haven't noticed, why not take it worldwide?

The propaganda we've swallowed has led us to our own demise. Our country continues to fall behind all other Western Countries, year after year, with regard to quality of life, health care, education, value of/support of working families, etc. etc. --- Yet, we continue to believe the crap we are fed - which only serves to line the pockets of the wealthy and make them even more obscenely wealthier.
