The media is having a ORGASM over Hillary's announcement they are measuring the drapes already

[bigdarryl]

JESUS!!! they act as if she has it locked up already no coverage on Edwards Clark or Obama. I was in the gym this afternoon on the treadmill and two guys next to me was talking saying there tired of the media covering the 08 campaign and tired of hearing and seeing Hillary in the media.

[Missy M]

1. Did Clark announce he is running for President?

Hillary is the latest to announce and therefore the interest. I heard a lot about Obama when he announced.

[bigdarryl]

2. she's not the latest Governor Richardson was the latest

[Missy M]

4. My mistake......

did Clark announce he is running for president?

[Parche]

11. clark

I think he is too old now to run for President, and he has no more Grecian formula.

[k_jerome]

14. lol. nt.

[wiley]

3. That's a gross thing to contemplate.

What do the guys on the treadmill say about the chances of picking up Senate or House seats in 2008?

[liberal N proud]

5. I would have loved to watch them if she had stayed out

The media has had her running since November 2004. This fantasy come true.

6. The Solution to your problem...

[peace13]

7. If this continues one will have to ask himself

why the 'liberal' media is so interested in Hillary? For her good they better back off because intelligent Dems will surely question this.

8. DU is also going "Hillary Bonkers" .. Look at how many Hillary posts are on here!!

If you type in the word Hillary and use your highlight function, this place lights up like a Christmas tree..

p.s. I'm still in the unique and rare camp of DU'ers who have never started a Hillary thread!!

And I plan to stay there!

9. At this point, last time around...

Lieberman was the clear front runner for the democratic nominee.

I can't remember how that worked out for him.

[SaveElmer]

10. I'm glad that thought gives you comfort...nt

[snowbear]

13. LOL... funny!

.."I can't remember how that worked out for him"

[AtomicKitten]

12. Well, considering she's at 41% and the next contender is at 17%

this can't come as too much of a surprise. Why the resentment? Just curious.

[paulk]

15. oh, no - understanding that point would take LOGIC

and that's in short supply around these parts...

must. bash. hillary.

[AtomicKitten]

16. The disparity in the way she is treated here is appalling

It's going to be interesting if she gets the nod; I don't think some have thought it out that far. It's funny that the folks that bash her mercilessly are usually the ones whining about their candidate being bashed. Oh, the irony.

[SaveElmer]

17. I detect an air of jealousy in posts like the OP's...

I dare say if their candidate were getting that kind of exposure they would be leaping for joy...

[wisteria]

25. The problem is she is getting it unfairly and undeservidely. Do you

think the networks would give equal time to all the candidates in the running? They won't but they should.

[SaveElmer]

32. When has the MSM ever covered campaigns fairly...

This is not a surprise...Hillary is simply better at garnering attention from them...it's part of the game that every potential candidate knows about up front and has to account for...

Obama has been doing a pretty good job of it as well...

[paulk]

18. well, you know last time a large group of Dean supporters

were so upset with Kerry getting the nom, and the rules in force here about trashing the nominee once he/she was chosen -

that they went off and formed their own website where they could trash Kerry (and Democrats in general) to their heart's content.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a repeat of that...

[k_jerome]

20. that is spot on...

"It's funny that the folks that bash her mercilessly are usually the ones whining about their candidate being bashed."

[wisteria]

26. Explaining that she lacks leadership qualities and has never taken a tough stand

her entire time in the senate is not bashing. Of course, I did one time bash her, but it was well deserved IMO, after she played along with the RW lies about Kerry misstatement about Bush. She knew it was nothing and she could of backed up a fellow Dem, instead she stabbed him in the back. I won't forget that because it shows what kind of person she really is.

[k_jerome]

28. i was referring to the analysis of the whiners. nt.

[MonkeyFunk]

19. I don't know...

I just saw Richardson on MSNBC.

What did Clark, Obama or Edwards do this weekend that's particularly newsworthy?

[k_jerome]

21. do you ever reply to any of the responses to your OP's?

[Catchawave]

22. Not according to the pundits on Tucker....

Way too much baggage, including the Coretta Scott King eulogy...ouch. Most are leaning Edwards "very clever under the radar campaign"....and he's "likeable" too.

23. I was at Denny's this morning and four elderly ladies at the next table

were talking excitedly and adoringly about Hillary running.

Maybe you should hang out at Denny's if you want to hear the good news on our next president.:think:

[wisteria]

27. Really, what were they saying? n/t

[oasis]

29. "How nice it would be to have a woman for president" and "Hillary's

smarter than Bill". There were a few comments on Hillary's latest book.

[wisteria]

31. People who eat at Denny's said that. n/t

[oasis]

34. Denny's has some dishes w/senior discounts. Senior citizens vote more

than any other demographic. They also have more time to read and watch teevee.

[wisteria]

24. Quote from a co-worker today, " don't ask me to vote for her, because no way no how,

she scares me". Now he is a Republican and he knows I support Kerry, and he knows that the senator has been right on may of the things he ran on, so he said, maybe she is a uniter, she'll bring us together in opposition. I don't know, I have Democrat friends as well as Republicans that think this is a joke and this is just a pay back for his cheating and Bill Clinton wanting to be back in the White House. I hope this dies down for a while, so that other candidates can have a chance to get some TV time.

[librechik]

30. Ah, the juicy and vulgar gossip they can drool over "legitimately"

bastards

they are worthless to adults who want to be adults.

[ShortnFiery]

33. Face it folks, the American M$M is Back-Wash.

The true "monkey vomit" of corporate best interests and shiny-object gossip fests all meant to keep us poor dumb non-investor classes entertained lest we look at our Military Industrial Complex BLEEDING our country into a wasteland. Well, only for the 99% of us, the wealthy will always find someplace to call "home." :(

But no worries, we are STUPID and prove it by watching this swill of bread and circuses.

I loathe our Corporate Media. :thumbsdown:

[AtomicKitten]

35. I find myself hollering at the TV when CorpNews Inc is on ...
