Huh?
Media avoids attacking McCain?
I consider Rush, Ann C., etc. “media.” HUGE media. They spent the last few weeks skewering McCain in every way possible.
And in doing so, they drove Romney out of the race by sending votes to Huckabee.
Last night’s GOP results have conservative fingerprints all over them.
Sorry...but Rush and Ann have but a fraction of the audience that the "mainstream" media has. Amd when their remarks do get coverage in the "mainstream" media, they have been twisted and distorted to the point that they're unrecognizable compared to their original remarks.
Let's face it: the people who elected and re-elected Clinton don't get their talking points from Rush or Ann; they get it from the Spew York Times and other liberal rags.
Last nights GOP results have conservative fingerprints all over them.
Conservatives don't support liberal RINOs like McCain. Anyone who says otherwise is trying to sell you something.
Gee, I wonder how many Republicans consider conservative talk radio the equivalent of the liberal media as you do?
Do you really believe that Rush, Sean, Ann Coulter, Glenn, Levin, Savage, Hewitt and others were all lying about someone they didn't really believe is the most conservative candidate?
In my view, Ron Paul is the most authentic conservative, but even I don't attribute such a ridiculous conspiracy to them for opposing Paul.
Thatthe Conservtive Media, They get a pass as long as they agree with The rest of the Conservatives.
No one else gets a pass, in the Media.
Romney’s problems are his own fault. Noone told Romney to flip-flop on so many issues. Noone told Romney to talk the conservative talk with a record of not walking the walk.
Romney is the John Kerry of the Republican party. He was against Reagan before he was for him. He was against pro-life before was for it. He was against 2nd amendment before he was mostly for it.
The saddest thing about Romney is that he is a stark example of how screwed we are as a party. When republicans say Romney is the ‘conservative’ candidate? sigh. that’s like saying Al Franken is the hilarious one in a comedy contest between him, pauly shore and alan greenspan.
I put zero stock in the ‘blame the media’ explanation. if romney can’t handle the media, he has no chance of handling the international geopolitique or the war on terror.
“Media avoids attacking McCain?”
McCain’s attack on Romney over his supposed attack on Dole’s patriotism was heinous. How what Romney said could ever be construed as an attack on Dole’s character or military record is politics at it’s most vindictive and slimiest. McCain is a vile, insercure little man. After his lies about Romney “withdrawl” support, I didn’t think he could sink any lower and the media’s refusal to call it for what it is - is equally reprehensible.
