Two great candidates have fought to a draw so far. But could media adoration wind up hurting Obama?
  • End of 2007?

    What difference did where Clinton was in the polls at the end of 2007? She was the only nationally known candidate. Did you ever believe she was going to carry the Black vote of Obama?

    Name one Media voice outside of Joe Conason and perhaps Dan Abrams who is not consistently anti-Clinton? You combine Media's pro-Obama, anti-Clinton, stance with the piling on of establishment endorsements and how is it that Obama can't put Clinton away?

    Obama is a movement, post-partisan, candidate in a line with McCarthy, McGovern, Hart and Bradley. All losers. However, he unlike them can get Black votes. Is a movement that is suspect among working and middle class Democrats a key to winning and can it keep up the momentum?

    Clinton may never be the most inspirational speaker in this race. However, she knows more about policy and how to get policy done than anyone else in this race. This is how is keeps winning big states and garnering delegates. That and the fact that many Americans have noticed the hatred of the Media toward her and their willingness to distort the truth for their position.
