go the way of the Charlie Black story.....I may be wrong, and I hope I am, but what evidence is there to support the idea that this important symbolic message will have any effect on McCain's narrated image as the stand-up truthtelling maverick? they'll find a way to turn it around by describing any attempt by the dems to keep it running as "tiresome," which is EXACTLY the word Jay Carney used to characterize Richard benVeniste's call for Black's firing, one DAY after that story broke. One day of coverage was too TIRING for Carney to suffer. that's what Obama faces.

or the McCain lying about supporting the recent Veterans' bill

did you see ANYthing at all about that on TV the last few days?

if you thought media coverage in 2000 and 2004 was horrendous, you'll be BEGGING for that sort of fair and balanced coverage after the conventions have come and gone. they're just getting warmed up

the racist aspects of this campaign are going to blow you away; just watch and see

you saw what Norquist said. did you see ANY mention of that on TV, about which it's been said that if you don't see it there, it didn't happen, and I didn't see it there, and it's too late for it to be a story any more
