===================================
Is that what you call men who know more, have more and have done more in their lives that you? (lol) The green-eyed monster did a number on you. Is that what we can expect from McCain supporters? That they let their insecurities vote for them? Sheesh..
Biden checked the inteviewere the way you would check any idiot. (lol)

Did Senator Obama reverse his position on public campaign financing before or after your interview with him in June?
Do you think that will decide the outcome of this race?

Mr Tapper should interview Barack Obama!
When he subbed for George S. on This Week, he asked tough questions and didn't let guests dodge in their replies. He made sure he got a straight answer from them!

STUPID PEOPLE CAN'T ACCOMPLISH REVOLUTION

EXTRA. PUH-LEEZ.
THIS GUY IS NOT STUPID.
HE DOES NOT DO INTERVIEWS.

The one that I would love to see interview all the candidates, including McCain and Palin is Chris Matthews. He never allows the guest to dodge questions and frames questions in a way that forces people to not mince words and say exactly what they mean. This is how Micelle Bachmann R-MN revealed herself to the country and showed how divisive the republican party has become.

Jake, what about the McCain campaign pushing the Ashley Todd "black Obama supporter/robber attack" story, immediately sending her pic to Drudge, and provising Drudge with info that might even be made up by the campaign itself since they are not to be found in the Pittsburgh police reports on the case?
If that is not a story to be told about the McCain campaign, I don't get it anymore.
That's what we all a free ride, Jake.

Palin is full of lies and deceptions! Now we find out the pipeline is the "pipeline to no where" - unfair bidding practices was used it could take many years to complete or maybe it will be the "pipeline to no where" that government will say no thanks to the crook that created dirty dealings. Palin should hide after this one! She is a cooked moose!

JD.... thanks for the news about Biden and the Miami WFTV interview...checking it out further it turns out they did a similar interview with McCain two weeks earlier by the same anchorwomen and tossed nothing but softball questions at him...Her questions to Biden sounded like they were based on McCain campaign talking points. So much for a liberal bias media. Oh, for a fun time watch both interviews and you'll see what I mean.

It's still a lot more than Palin has ever done or McCain has done in the last 12 weeks.

Jake..
where is the story about Palin and her Pipeline ethics probe?
you never ever wrote about how a McCain adviser hyped up the story about Ashley Todd and her backwards B hoax story...
Now Palin is caught again, doing favors and breaking ethics laws for friends in regards to that bogus pipeline that has never started....
Wonder why the MSM never covers real stories... they are stuck on the Joe the Moron stories and blaming the democrats for his name being tarnished.

>>>Why is everybody blameing Obama for Joe the plubmer problems. McCain repeatedly brought the man up during the debate. In his desperate attempt to make Obama look bad. Blame the right one or shut up.<<<<
Obama answered the question honestly, big mistake. Perhaps that is the problem. He revealed himself to be a socialist. Of course if the media were doing their job they would know about his membership (or very close association) with the New Party in Chicago, a socialist party. Documents are easily Googled, but that kinda of research is just to difficult for the media these days.

Showbiz people are voters
too. The MSM shouldn't be
snide about Mario Lopez and
Lark Voorhees conducting
interviews with a candidate
for POTUS.

I guess that balances out the interview he did on foreign policy with Joe Klein.

Those are accusations becuase if it were fact, Obama would be in jail.

Just how bad has the presidential campaign coverage been this year?
So bad that popular online columnist Michael S. Malone, aka ABC.com's "Silicon Insider," wrote Friday, "I’m deeply ashamed right now to be called a 'journalist.'

Oh they reported on it. You guys like stretching the truth, you led me to believe they caught them...... But they discovered after the fact not before.

Accusation doesn't mean everybody is guilty. It is like me saying you are crazy because Ashley Todd is representative of every McCain supporter. You can't have it both ways, The next time a McCain supporters does something erratic you have to take the blame. I'm sure that Wyoming guy voted in Wyoming by absentee. Call it what it is not what you like it to be. I would like McCain to be racist but I know he isn't.
