Waiting for the Romney Comeback
Rick Klein (Rick Klein is ABC News' Senior Washington Editor of World News with Diane
Sawyer): "He's got 'em just where he wants 'em... or something like that. We're about a week away from the Mitt Romney comeback - or at least the Mitt Romney comeback story. The race is bound to tighten again, and the first debate is the best opportunity to drive that tightening, from the challenger's perspective. Just as conventional wisdom is that President Obama is currently leading the race, conventional wisdom also says that Romney will bounce back. The race can't be over yet because it's not over yet, and Romney is primed to be the beneficiary of that dynamic."

So kids, we know what we're up against. The MSM are going to go all out shelling for Romney after the debate so that they can get back to the story they want--a Romney comeback with tightening polls and a close race. No matter how well the president does next week, they will push a Romney comeback.

To keep the SuperPACs interested, they have to create the illusion of a tight race.
It is highly unethical. Very much an undisclosed conflict of interest.

in one of the most republican towns in Ohio (Westerville), made an ass of himself
in front of a pro Ryan crowd, and then went to a Bedford, OH factory where workers
had to sit behind Mitt to keep their jobs.

I am sure the MSM would gleefully agree.

(129,543 posts)That's what they said before and after the conventions and how did that work out for them?
This man used up about half of his 9 lives during the rethug primary when both Santorum and Gingrich were winning primary after primary... and he has thrown away a couple more lives the past 2 months. He really doesn't have much left.
