13. Andrea Mitchell is politically bipolar...
One minute she sounds reasonable; the next she's making over-the-top comments about Obama.

That woman is all over the map.

I imagine that much of this has to do with the high-pressure tactics that both campaigns unleash
on the media. Both campaigns do it. However, McCain seems hell-bent on bullying the media into
spewing his talking points and strong-arming the media into going overboard to help him out.

They say, "The squeaky wheel gets the grease" and I think the McCain camp is rabid about
complaining and ranting about how they don't get a fair shake.

The other day, when Michelle Bachman was on, Tweety came out and said that the McCain talking points
included verbiage about questioning the patriotism of liberal Congress members. Those were the
marketing tidbits that the McCain camp and the RNC wanted the media to filter down into our living rooms.

Isn't that soooooo revolting?????? The media needs to be telling these people to 'get bent'.
