"One third of voters may switch candidates"..Main Stream Media Prepares an excuse
Edited on Mon Oct-25-10 02:06 PM by Stuart G
for all the slanted news..

WASHINGTON – One in three people has yet to lock onto a choice in the Nov. 2 congressional elections, according to an Associated Press-GfK Poll. Yet in this year of the fed-up voter, even these folks offer little hope to Democrats.

Despite record political spending and months of frenzied campaigning, one-third of likely voters remain steadfastly undecided or favor a candidate but say they could change their mind, according to the survey.

Not exactly a friendly article, (when you read it all) but the media needs an excuse when they are proved wrong. We will see more of these very soon.

1. Translation: "We don't know what the fuck is going to happen, just blowing smoke out of our asses."
What's up with "news" being people sitting around at a table throwing out uninformed opinions? I know that's all FOX has to offer, but you would think the real news stations would be above that. There ARE NO ELECTION RESULTS until the election is OVER. THEN it is news.

3. Yeah!
The media has been pushing the GOP takeover and now they are going to have to transition so they don't look like the morans (to use a tea party word) that they have been promoting. But - timing is great because it's coming in the week before the election.
