Hillary hasn't lost yet. It's not over until it's over. The media does not decide when it's over. The media does not decide who is the democratic nominee. The media counted mccain down and out and almost had turned him into a joke by reporting him carrying his own luggage to the airports and flying coach. Look at him now. obama hasn’t won yet.

In what universe? Did you watch Russert and Williams' hit on her at the October debate? Have you ever seen Chris Matthews? The media hate Hillary - they're pushing Obama as savior and have given him a free ride so far. The media have been pushing Hillary? In what universe?

Nonetheless, I find the rise of Obama disquieting. He has the thinnest resume of any major presidential candidate I can remember. Plus he is a member of a an Afrocentric, black liberation church that in its covenantal statements speaks of America as a captor state that either forces blacks into "concentration camps" or "foster[s] a social system that encourages them to kill off one another." This is sick stuff, pretty much Louis Farrakhan territory. (See <a href="http://sweetness-light.com/archive/barack-obamas-church-ultra-left-and-afrocentric" rel="nofollow">here</a> for a summary with links back to the church website.) The media gives Romney a regular going-over for being a Mormon, yet gives Obama a pass for his participation in this racist, quasi-Christian church.

Vietnam vets fighting Kerry learned this first hand - we had a terrible time breaking through the Iron Curtain of the MSM and getting any facts out. To this day, much information on Kerry has never been published, and the MSM narrative about the Veterans' movement is so twisted as to be slander. There is a new book that describes this struggle, and I highly recommend it. It was written by insiders in the vets movement, and details the struggle with AMMP and the shocking behavior of those who presume to enlighten us.

He did run in the 1984 primaries, but he ran again in 1988 and that's when he was caught. I'll request for that sentence to be dropped. Thanks for pointing that out. Jason, You are right, my mistake.

I am unlikely to vote for any of the Democrats left in this race, but isn't it premature to count Senator Clinton out? My sense is more "she might not win the nomination" than "she cannot."

I didn't speculate on how good the people's information would now be. Just that there would be more info and that mainstream media won't be controlling it.

And on either side, other than knowing the candidates made them feel good do Iowans really know what they voted for? Would Oprah, Inc be considered Old Media or New Media?
