I agree with mcbush, the media is covering Obama too much
I mean there's so much the media could cover about mcbush that they're not:

His comment about a Jewish holiday being similar to Halloween

His singing "Bomb Iran" (which he stole from a 1980's parody of a Beach Boys song)

He still thinks Czechoslovakia is a country (and has for 8 years -- DUH-bya lampooned him for the same gaffe in 2000)

His four different versions of how to handle the situation in Afghanistan (in just two weeks)

His comment that the Iraq-Pakistan border is extremely dangerous. (Which means that he knows something we don't about a super secret invisible border that links the two countries)

His League of Democracies idea (I think he just wants to have an excuse to wear tights and a utility belt)

His comments about kicking Russia out of the G-8

His comments this morning on NBC's today show that he knows more about what Iraqi's want than Maliki does.

I say mcbush is right...
Obama is stealing his thunder.

Than again...Maybe mcbush is benefiting from the lack of coverage he's receiving.
Maybe the press is aiding him by not covering him.

3. McEnvy is just jealous Obama getting all the attention....as in almost everything competitive
The focus is on the front runner...not the loser....go ask Dave Duval when Tiger is playing...who gets the press?

5. I agree
Can't imagine the back lash that would be created if Obama made these type of statements over and over.

6. Here's coverage, Mccain voted twice NOT to make MLK a national holiday... which
of course after he was nominated the presidential republican candidate has apologized twice for since.
