Rudy keeps coming in last in every primary but the media still covers him!
and allows him in every debate and interviews him on their shows on primary day. They dismiss Edwards who has won many more votes and don't include DK in the debates. They really show their objectivity don't they?

2. 2 different situations, Rudy's strategy from the beginning has been
to skip the early states, the states with very few delegates and focused on Florida- a winner take
all state with a ton of delegates. and Rudy continues to poll at the top or second in Nationwide polling.

4. that is blatently false
Guilini campaigned very hard in NH up until the time it appeared he had no chance. He also campaigned for a small amount of time in Iowa. He has masterfully spun his late removal from those races as never competing.

7. So if DK claimed a strategy of winning the last 20 states he'd be in the debates?
Not bloody likely.

9. He was the mayor. I'd expect him to at least do that.
It's not like he went above and beyond.

6. They keep covering Clinton and Obama, like Edwards
announced he's quitting after 3 states.

They want to run the election, and it's not working out the way they planned.

11. Kneejerk reaction.



The RW Radio Hatemongers keep talking Rudy up as if he might have a chance in Hell.

OxyRush and his pals don't think the others are conservative enough, or so they say.

It might just be that Rudy slipped them something under the table. But the MSM seem

to think Rudy is big news because the Hatemongers are always talking about him.
