36. People are either complaining or rejoicing.
Edited on Fri Jun-20-08 05:17 PM by ProSense
That's why I posted the thread Obama's FISA statement with that title.

Is anyone paying attention to anything?

Some people don't seem to get the difference between holding Obama accountable and making ill-timed statements. Others are grossly misjudging the MSM's ability to drown out a candidate's message and completely distort reality.

Take the public financing issue: Feingold really disappointed me. McCain-Feingold has been destroyed by McCain. He hasn't said a word. Why now that Obama is making a move that by all measures is a smart one?

The public isn't in tune to the issue itself, but the media will repeat the point that Obama makes and breaks pledges in every article and news segment they can. Who cares?

When the Swift Liars started to attack Kerry. His campaign was serious about responding, but look at how many Democrats either don't know that he did (weren't paying attention), doubted the truth (relied on the media) and continue to speak about it in ways that aren't supported by the facts.

"Bitter" and Wright, Democrats need to brace for the worst. Obama isn't president yet.

This isn't the primary. There is only one outcome: Obama or McCain will be president.








edited typo.
