The impact of mass-marketing of certain candidates by the MSM is devastating, IMHO. The couch-potatoes across the country absorb all the "nightly news" as factual and go with the flow....

This is why Democrats will continue to hold both Houses of Congress in 2008, and will very likely win the White House. The billions of dollars that the DNC-controlled MSM provides in basically free airtime promotion on nightly news cannot be overcome when the truth is not available to the masses who depend SOLELY on the TV set for their information.

This country is in deep doo-doo.....

I've been saying since 2004 that the 2008 election will be a barometer on how much power the MSM still wields. As alternative media sources arise and start to show real power, the MSM lefties have become almost punch-drunk with the need to further the leftist agenda. They will pull out all the stops this time, and if they have enough power remaining to swing an election, say hello to President Hillary or President Obama.

correct, Most people are lazy when doing the right thing to save their Republic. I suggest everyone contact their friends and relatives around the country and tell them about Fred. I had friends in FL who said they were leaning to Huck (they only heard the MSM spin). After I filled them in on Fred and gave them some sites to visit, they came back to me with changed minds! I think Fred picked up 4 more votes in FL and 2 in KY just from a little informing.

I am astounded how people are too lazy to inform themselves of the candidates. It would be the end of our beloved Republic if the two ultra leftists, Huck and the demo candidate comes out on top in the primaries.
