Um why do the media and people here on DU act surprised that obamas numbers have sunk

[Egnever]

I saw talking head after talking head today act like they couldn't figure out why all of a sudden Obama was losing ground in the polls.

Here on Du even theres posts like this one saying "theres something going on"

Whats the freaking mystery?

He has been getting hammered over totally inconsequential crap for nearly two weeks straight now. You thought it would have no effect or something? Of course his numbers dropped.

Thats what is so fucking bad about Hillary's campaign at this point. She can lower his numbers but she still cant win. He on the other hand cant attack her because he will need her supporters after this thing finally gets called and it would go against the theme of his campaign anyway.

Yes Hillary's campaign is great at throwing shit I am not sure the republicans would be much better at it. In the end though what will have been accomplished other than tearing down our nominee while our real opponent sits and gathers money.

1. I think both the MSM & the Clinton supporters (same thing, I guess...)

.........use surprise to hide their glee.

However, there are polls coming out tomorrow that put Obama back to where he was before the latest Wright snipe by the MSM, so their glee wont last long.

2. Yep, it's not just every show.

On shows like David Gregory's execrable Race to the Bottom, it's every segment of every show.

Disgusting.
