Yesterday it occurred to me that I do NOT see the usual demonization of Pubby candidates in liberal media that we almost always see.
It always used to be these guys would throw seniors out on streets, take food out of children’s mouth and take us back to days of slavery.
This time around I have yet to see a Pubby getting brutally attacked.
Remember the commercial that Jesse Jackson and company made when a Black man was dragged to death tied to a truck? Even though he got death penalty, Dems used that commercial to make African Americans HATE W.
No such dirty trick has been employed yet.
Why?
My guess is that they are so euphoric about Hillobama - a woman and black man, and so giddy at possibility of victory in November that they believe their victory is foregone conclusion.
They are simply sleeping at the wheel.
Good for us!!! ;o)
By the time they go into Demonization mode, they may find they waited too long. Also, the guy they LIONIZED in elections past to try and SPLIT GOP, is now actually the presumptive nominee.
They have EXTRA WORK to do if they want to DEMONIZE him. By demonize, I mean make people actually AFRAID of him.
Because they don't need to. It would be like kicking a dog that just got hit by a truck and is spasming out its last breaths, blood and guts running out on the asphalt.
Republicans are no longer a part of this race. It's either Obama or Hillary, most likely Obama.
“This time around I have yet to see a Pubby getting brutally attacked.”
It’s too soon for the brutal attacks. Both sides are in a bruising fight for the nomination, which is rare, and that is sucking up all the oxygen right now. Once McCain has the nomination completely sewn up, the unrelenting, merciless bloodletting will commence.
Howard Dean has already said that opposition research is being done on McCain and stories are ready to be released to the press at the proper time. That will be mostly after the convention and in October, when rank and file voters are paying attention and the maximum damage can be done.
“Mac” is a fatally flawed candidate, which will be made apparent to all just in time for November 4th.
