Iowa did not sink the candidacy of Howard Dean.
[Read the article: Barack Obama's breakthrough victory]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It was not Iowa. the state that sank Howard Dean, it was reporters. Reporters mimic each other relentlessly. and so whatever they say over and over again, must be right. Howard did not scream in victory, he merely yelled; but once one reported said he screamed, it was all over. Howard Dean would have been a formidable candidate to run against G.W.Bush. It is inexcusable that he is not.

Hillary Clinton is a Sure Winner
[Read the article: The debate through the eyes of Clinton loyalists]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]I can see what is happening, the reporters want Obama to win and so they are pushing for that. Hillary will win and we'll have 8 years of her. Hope is no substitute for experience. No matter what the college students or reporters say.

John Edwards is a Presidential Hopeful
[Read the article: The politics of not nice]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Edwards is a presidential candidate that all the reporters(including yours)don't want to see win. He is honest, and yes he lives in a large house(a fact reporters dwell on for some reason),and straightforward, and has government experience, a fact that most genXers find inexcusable.

Sick to Death of Reporters & Obama
[Read the article: Bill Clinton gets passive-aggressive]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]It is getting quite sickening listening to reporters and pundits seeking to downgrade government experience. I find it appalling that reporters, supposedly of a liberal bent, are in the habit of downgrading politicians who are in government. I realize that many students don't want to acknowledge the benefits of any time spent in government, thanks to Bush & Cheney, the blow-em-up twins, however, there is something to be said for knowing your way around Washington D.C. when you're in a position of power.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]You just can't let it go. It's Obama this and Obama that. Clinton grabbing victory from yhe jaws of defeat, etc. Finally? This is only the second test. Give it a rest.

Hillary's Win
[Read the article: The witch ain't dead, and Chris Matthews is a ding-dong]

Hillary Bashing
[Read the article: How bashing Hillary backfired]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Here, here. Conason is right about the media and so is Brokaw. I don't even support Hillary, but it is shameful how she has been treated, her whole political life and Bill, also. Spending 70+ million to catch Mr. Clinton after a blow job in the White House is excessive even for the Republicans. Then the media hounded them about Whitewater, which didn't even involve them. It is a national disgrace, but the media is a national disgrace.

The Clinton's Alleged Remarks About Rev.King
[Read the article: More about race and the Democrats]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Oh Please. Tim Russert needs his mike cleaned. All the reporters are looking for a reason that Hillary beat Obama in New Hampshire. It couldn't be that the voters liked her more, they must be racists to disagree with the reporter/pundits What Bullshit!

The Hillary Clinton Imaginary Slant
[Read the article: The Clinton-Obama contest gets rougher]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Give it a rest, already. Reporters can't stand that Obama is not walking away with the nomination, so they have to make up a perfectly abysmal story of what Sen. Clinton and her husband said. It is disgusting. But if the news media said it on TV, it must be true.

Hillary Clinton Speaks
[Read the article: The race vs. gender war]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Hillary did not mis-speak about Rev. King. No Matter how many times you say she did. it does not make it so. I realize the difference between perception and reality. However, Dean did not scream, and Bill and Hillary did not speak against Blacks.

Hillary Clinton
[Read the article: Clinton gets her party started]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Very subtle, but give it a rest. You and the rest of the 'media'need a wake up call. Firing Wolf and Tim would be a good start. Anybody with a name like Wolfgang needs to be reminded of who he is, really.

Hillary Clinton is a Sure Winner
[Read the article: Goodbye, Super Tuesday]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]If you'd all quit talking amongst yourselves and listen to your people, you'd understand why Hillary is winning. You "reporter" types think you have the inside track, you don't. you are the ones whom everyone is discussing. Your obvious bias for Obama.
