Can you believe they let all this crap slide? McCain's comments to his wife, about social security, missing votes etc and all they can talk about is whether Obama's glow is gone.

(Although you gotta love that they stepped all over McCain's big moment yesterday when he should have had the day because of the missle tests in Iran. Instead they went after Jesse Jackson. Ha ha.)

5. they did when he was against Clinton, they hate the Clinton's but now he's running against McCain
they are letting McCain get away with anything, not knowing his position on birth control (why would he have to look up his vote to know what his position is?) wanting all Iranians to die from cancer (yes, it was a joke, but the mind set is pretty telling. Aren't we saying we want to help those who live under dictators?) etc etc etc

6. I believe it has less to do with hating anyone and more to do with ratings
They present "the news" in whatever way will make it most seem like the election is a toss up, even though polls constantly show Obama beating McCain soundly.

Don't get me wrong, I know they are cozy with McCain, but I do believe if McCain was up by six points at this stage, you would be seeing a lot more critical stuff in the media, simply because they want everyone to feel like its "close."
