Just Had a frightining thought
Edited on Wed Oct-22-08 01:17 PM by UndertheOcean
could the MSM be exaggerating Obama's lead hoping to curtail huge turnout on election day ?

I can't bring myself to believe the MSM is just reporting the truth ,its not their nature to do so

1. Would you be happier if they said he was losing?
Seriously. Calm down. You can't think EVERYTHING is a conspiracy.

2. but I just think I heard on NPR that Obama turned out 100,000 in St. Louis yesterday?
Was that a mis-speak. If not, it's incredible.
