"Can Hillary Cry Her Way Back to the White House?"

[texastoast]

From my Credo email I just got:


That was the headline of a Maureen Dowd column in today's New York Times.

Stop pimping prejudice

Big media is perverting our democratic process. The sexist coverage of Clinton's tears was prejudicial and beyond the pale. Tell them to knock it off.

Journalists have been replaced by a punditocracy that makes its living (and gets its kicks) by perverting our democratic process. The misogyny that was unleashed by the media's feeding frenzy on the video of an exhausted Clinton tearing up at a small New Hampshire roundtable of voters was just the tip of the iceberg.

To be clear, we are not endorsing any candidate. This is not about who we choose for president, but rather how we choose our leader. Voting based on sexist logic propagated by media monopolies is no way to select a candidate.

Sign our petition and tell the major media outlets: Stop pimping prejudice.


Hillary Clinton's win in New Hampshire last night was shocking. The performance of the national press corps in the last couple of days, unfortunately, was not.

3. You know I was thinking this morning about Obama

wonder if he can get Oprah to jump and prance around on the stage with him so more and send the doodle boppers into stupors....I am so glad they can't phone in their votes. They would accuse Hillary of jamming the phones.

4. Uhm...

I am callin BS here. Most of the media played stupid and walked right into the usual "expectation game."

The "New Hampshire surprise" was completely manufactured. Hillary was leading nationally in the polls by bare double digits. Her "surprise win" was needed to undo the damage of Iowa.

Amazingly the media bought the "I would settle for thrid place" nonsense that the Clinton campaign put out. I am constantly surprised at how amnesia-prone the media is in this regard, all the more shocking since they seem to run almost neverending process stories with no regard for the issues.
