When the Texans for Truth are the story, the media talks about how it will affect the polls.

They don't inquire about or debate the details like they did with the Not-So-Swifties. It's more talk about the horserace.

I can't tell whether its the lack of the 1st mover advantage by TFT group... or a deliberate effort by the media.

My guess is that its a little of both.

1. Plus, I think the talking heads are getting bored now.
On with the next story already. We kind of missed our "window of opportunity" on it. Sigh. :(

2. I duuno about that
60 mins has an older demographic, olders are more likely to vote. This report tonight had documents and that makes a difference. The story dies if we let it.
