Politico has egg on its face today...

[SaveElmer]

Edwards NOT suspending his campaign!!!

[Norquist Nemesis]

1. It was only a matter of time

"Politico" has been the flavor of the month as far as the cabal news is concerned.

[lancdem]

4. Yep

[BlueCaliDem]

6. From the start, Politico.com's been too right-wing-ish for me. eom

[SaveElmer]

8. I've heard some of their comentators on the radio...

And they are all like Cokie Roberts...saying the obvious like it was some great insights...

Or just sounding stupid!!!

[Forkboy]

17. "And they are all like Cokie Roberts."

Jesus...I've had nightmares like that. :scared:

[Norquist Nemesis]

9. Yes, the "conservative voice" came on loud and clear

from what I saw. Same thing with that "hotsoup" that's supposed to be non-political/independant.

Thing is, just because you claim "Independent" and/or "non-political" does not mean it is middle of the road. The proof's in the pudding, and so far it's only one side.

[BlueCaliDem]

11. Yep. That's why I pay them NO heed. I don't trust NEW so-called "independent"...

...news outlets.

My criteria for allowing myself to pay initial but the most minimum attention to "new" news outlets, is when they report news from a different viewpoint than CNN, and MSNBC (except for Olbermann), or when they report something NOT in the negative about Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, and the other Democrats.

Politico.com's never made it with me.

2. I'll say, lol

Didn't MSNBC also say that? Maybe they were reporting what was on Politico.

[SoFlaJet]

3. tea the other day too

when they pretty much made it seem Gonzalez was as good as gone

[grasswire]

5. I'm happy to hear that politico has egg on its face

Maybe those guys were wrong about some other things when they covered campaigns. Like things about Gore or Kerry? Or Bush? Didn't Mike Allen cover the Bush campaign?

[Eurobabe]

7. That's what happens when you are jonesing to be first. n/t

[SaveElmer]

10. Who's financing them? They came out of the blue awfully fast...

Alot of expensive advertising, making alliances with other news organizations...

I'd be curious where the money is coming from...

[zulchzulu]

15. Some of the same news components also are on Drudge...

Perhaps it's a mirror site without the self-hating blowhard...

[emulatorloo]

12. POLITICO ARE RIGHT WING HACKS -- and outta be banned as a source at DU

[AtomicKitten]

16. just jumping the gun and trying to be out there first with breaking news

However, that's the kind of news they should NOT be rolling the dice on. Dumbasses.

[Forkboy]

18. The name of the game

Be first before be correct.

Good to see someone get bit on the ass by that theory for once.

[burrowowl]

19. May Elizabeth and John be able to follow their hopes for us

and the country.
She could be the next Elenor Roosevelt!
