13. Keith Olbermann suggested tonight that the media is feeding this thing
and wondered aloud whether they share some blame for this whole "working class white voter" nonsense. He even suggested that covering for hours on end primaries like WV and KY where Clinton won in blowouts was disingenuous because Clinton literally does not have a chance at winning the nomination.

So I think he agrees with what you say. I do too. But the problem is, we are not filtering the media hackery through the correct lens. However, the party leaders that I have heard speak in the media ARE... and that's a good thing. Yes, they are cowards, but a way will be found that gives them cover to come out and endorse in numbers that will effectively end this thing after the FL and MI situation is neutralized.

If you don't believe that, then in effect, you don't believe in Dean as a party leader. His record in '06 should inspire some confidence. He'll make sure what needs to be done is done.

Hillary will not be pushed, but she will be firmly nudged out of the picture.
