in their faces. Chuck Todd and Tweety, prior to the caucus had tingling in their legs. Now they like Kornecki and many others in the Tuesday morning eating of crow. The question is whether or not they will continue to follow Trump around the country like he is the Second Coming or will your programming be constantly interrupted with dribble from Rubio?

(4,113 posts)Huh? Was that a Freudian slip or something? All of the polls prior to the Iowa caucuses had Trump in the lead. Rubio even finished a close third behind Trump's second-place finish in the caucuses.
On the Democratic side, you had a similar situation with Clinton - she was leading in all of the polls and by wide margins. Sanders finished in a virtual tie with her in the Iowa caucuses and the media gerbils barely mention that fact. All you heard this morning on ABC and MSNBC was the spin from the Clinton campaign that she had won the Iowa caucuses. They never gave any perspective or comments from the Sanders campaign.
This is another example of the MSM attempting to shape the dialogue and attempting to frame the way they want the elections to run, in my opinion. And that's why they have no credibility.
