This is crazy. The MSM have gone from 'meh, mostly a tie' to 'Obama won'

[Symarip]

Seriously... The second the CNN phone poll came back in Obama's favor overwhelmingly, they might as well have appointed him President. He's already won. Fuck, I'll take it.

[Jade Fox]

1. Didn't take them long to figure out which way the wind is blowing...nt

[Arugula Latte]

45. And they didn't need a weatherman ...

Just public reaction.

[FreeState]

2. I noticed that as well... just commented to my partner the media changed its tune quickly

its almost like their ohhh shit moment when they realized they will lose viewers if they keep up the lies...

[Symarip]

9. I heard the talking heads afterwards.

I went upstairs to grab a drink and call a friend on the West Coast.

Grabbed the laptop and came downstairs and all of a sudden the winner was, The Winner!!!!


Fucking crazy.

[leeroysphitz]

17. Could someone pass along the message to Wolf?

[Jade Fox]

46. Yes.....

[Curtland1015]

3. Yup. As soon as the poll numbers came in they changed their tune!

What a bunch of HACKS!

[Connie_Corleone]

4. They do this all the time. LOL!!

When they find out that the regular folks aren't buying their pathetic spin, they start singing a different tune.

[FrenchieCat]

5. I called them,

that's why! You can too! http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x7199815

[deadparrot]

6. Yep, once the focus groups started rolling in,

they're rushing to claim Obama's victory.

Not that I mind, of course. :D

[mnhtnbb]

7. MSM is full of shit.

[Jennicut]

8. CNN was the fairest right off the bat but now everyone is seeing the light

Obama has kicked some Grumpy Old Man ass!

[iamthebandfanman]

10. because polls have been decisive!

obama is winning in polls conducted of voters...
you cant deny the people. hehe

[Muttocracy]

11. oh, that's funny. No TV so I saw the poll results first and was baffled by posts

about what the pundits were saying. :)

[sandnsea]

12. All these polls matter

And yes, they do this every time. It's why we have to be more agressive about contacting the media.

[kenny blankenship]

13. They can't hold back the flood anymore

[President Decider]

22. I agree ... the voice and will of the people is too strong. The flood gates have opened for Obama!

[KewlKat]

14. perhaps the polls of the people

caused them to report reality?

[Cha]

38. That's what I'm thinking ..the polls

weren't influenced by the corporatepunditheads so the cmw had to go with the polls.

Amazing! We knew before the debate that the cmw would spin it for mccain to keep this a horserace.

[vanderBeth]

15. They wanted to gage the responses of the people first.

the people say it is an Obama victory.

[Arkana]

16. Looks like enough people watched it to form their own opinions.

[Midlodemocrat]

18. God. I so hope you're right.

The last couple of days have made me very nervous wondering what they're up to. I hope you are right. Hell, I'll even drive up to that HellHole and buy you dinner.

:rofl:

[Symarip]

20. MANASSAS IS NOT A HELL HOLE

We have a Best Buy and everything.

[Midlodemocrat]

24. So do we!!!! And, we have a WaWa!!!!

And, best of all a BoneFish Grille!!!

:woohoo:

:woohoo:


:rofl:

[Symarip]

26. I'm from California

My burrito's don't have rice in them.

Yeah. Let that settle in.

[Midlodemocrat]

31. I'm with ya there. Not a big fan of the burrito

with rice in it. It's why I tend to avoid Chipotle. Unlike my kids who practically live there.

[Symarip]

33. Chipotle's are going out of business in San Diego

In Virginia I've seen the line out the door. My co-workers fall to the ground and orgasm in convulsions if you even mention Chipotle.

[Midlodemocrat]

34. There's another 'new' Mexican fast food place opening up

Quoda? or something like that? My daughters went once and said it was really good. A step up from Taco Bell, apparently. Which at least won't get them escorted from the middle school by a bald douchebag.

:rofl:

[Symarip]

35. I forgot about the bald man with a badge.

Did he ever write you an apology?

[Midlodemocrat]

36. No, his boss called and apologized.

Said he couldn't make the BD apologize because he technically didn't do anything that was against policy, but he did say that he would have him take some sort of 'class' on dealing with the public, so I think you could get the idea that mine wasn't the first or only complaint.

I had lunch with a friend today who had been on a cruise the entire month of Sept. and she couldn't believe the story. I mean, it doesn't bother me anymore, but wow, you can't make that crap up.

:rofl:

[Symarip]

39. Escorting a person out of a school for bringing a child lunch still seems just bizarre

I did Military Police work way back when. It's weird what can happen to people if they have the power to enforce law.

Anyhow, I'm having a BBQ Sunday if you want to join us in up here in civilization you and your mate and spawn are invited. We'll talk all slow like for you so you can understand what we're saying and everything.

[Midlodemocrat]

41. LOL. You talk funny.

:rofl:

Thanks for the invite! Not sure what's going on here at Chez Midlo on Sunday, but I'll check and if we're free, I would love to come!

[PM7nj]

27. Oh Wawa! I lovee Wawa! I will never leave the Mid Atlantic because of Wawa.

[Midlodemocrat]

29. HEATHEN!!!! They started in NE!!!

Where do you think I got my crates for my bookshelves when I was in college? Not that I would know anything about the loss of same from a certain WaWa near the University of New Haven.

Nope. Not a thing.



:rofl:

[krawhitham]

19. Flash polls will do that

[Drunken Irishman]

21. It's sunk in.

[CAG]

23. They really think we're stupid, a main theme in their "in depth" analysis

was that Obama was too diplomatic when he kept saying McCain was right about one thing, and they totally ignored that Obama would then turn around and say McCain was wrong on ten things

[Pattib]

25. They always pull that crap..and they always end up looking like morons.

[workinclasszero]

28. That just proves the MSM is as clueless as the rethugs

Just wait till Obama wins the election in a landslide! The talking heads will be shocked!!

[HughMoran]

30. HA!!! HA!!! All you negative pants - the SPIN WENT OUR WAY THIS TIME!!!!!

Hmmm, where are all the naysayers tonight??

[renate]

32. that is EXCELLENT news

I just wrote a post about how my (Dem) husband thought McCain won, and I didn't understand why on earth he thought so--I assumed I must have missed something--so I am SUPER glad to read this.
:woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:
:woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo::woohoo:

[Symarip]

44. THAT

Is crazy.

[crazy_vanilla]

37. yeah, they are now reading the polls

[bevoette]

40. that's because HE DID EFFIN WIN!!! :D

[Symarip]

43. Well yeah.

I'm just shocked that for once a little spin went in the favor of the guy with a D next to his name.

[TheDonkey]

42. That's why they are called media whores

[spiderpig]

47. Thank you. I thought it was just me.

Watching Tweety change his tune from "Obama wasn't forceful enough and agreed too much with Mc*" to "Mc* wouldn't make eye contact and Obama was much more presidential.:

The polls are pretty consistent.
