Frank - thanks for providing this forum.<BR/><BR/>Over the past several weeks I have completely been blown away by the sheer hatred of Bill and Hillary Clinton by the press, especially talking head TV personalities. <BR/><BR/>While Hillary Clinton has provided point by point plans on how she intends to govern this country, Obama has simply delivered - certainly moving speeches. Granted, he is a better speaker than Hillary, I can vouch for that personally, but she has the depth, intelligence, and capacity to run the government, when I am not sure Senator Obama does.<BR/><BR/>Circling back to my central point - I watched on N.H. primary night as Chris Matthews was apoplectic that Hillary won, and that the polls were wrong, and then just this past weekend, the talking heads on CNN and MSNBC were downright giddy that Hillary lost, and by a wide margin.<BR/><BR/>Clearly, the press is unfairly whacking Bill and Hillary, and goosing up the race card - any which way they can. <BR/><BR/>Similarly, they have marginalized John Edwards, so that he is pretty much out of the running. <BR/><BR/>It is aggravating to me that Chris Matthews, and a bunch of guys and Gals I never heard of are forcing the Democratic Electorate in the direction they want, not what might be good for the country.<BR/><BR/>I might as well watch FOX news from now on, at least I will tune it in knowing that I am watching right wing propaganda, and that they will do anything to drag Democrats through the mud. <BR/><BR/>People should make their own decision on who to vote for in the Democratic Primary, not based on nonsense that the talking heads are saying, or how many Kennedys are endorsing Obama - or Hillary. An equal number of Kennedys are supporting Hillary.<BR/><BR/>Don't forget to vote, next Tuesday, Feb. 5, noon to 9pm.<BR/><BR/>Tom BellickThomas Bellickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01089018844752791661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8277455469409055481.post-71086469596755701032008-01-27T10:53:00.000-08:002008-01-27T10:53:00.000-08:00Nothing bothers me more during election time is the spin media puts on things. They seldom think outside the boxcelhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13979321261099431510noreply@blogger.com
