When McCain wins in November, Cafferty and the rest of the media cronies who have tried to cram Obama down our throats, will all be irrelevant.

Most MSM journalists are liberal, and they are twisting the news to get "their" candidate elected. Look at how long they protect John Edwards. The fact that some of us noticed that the MSM edited the news to support Saddam, to support John Edwards and to prop up Obama is the real story. As far a your broad brush portrayal of the commenter's on this blog goes, check out the Huffington Post or Daily KOS. If what you read here gives you the vapors, you will be aghast at what you read at the left wing sites. The Huffington Post has to close comments whenever a conservative is diagnosed with a serious illness because of the hatred that is expressed by the writers who comment there. Out of 11 comments here only two said anything negative about the Democrat. Your broad brush covers with very thin paint. Stick to the facts, debate the issue. DB Miller-
