Round Two of the MSM anointing another winner... (we've seen this before)
Remember when Hillary was the 'inevitable' candidate who could not be stopped? How Tweety and the others could compliment her enough as the consensus MSM anointed winner?

And now its Obama's turn to receive the mantle bestowed on him as the next consensus MSM anointed winner.

Honestly there is no real insight and introspection going on today among pretender MSM journalists.

IF I were Obama I would be very suspicious of the adulation he is receiving from the MSM. THey are fickle and have their own agenda.

1. This difference is that HRC didn't have the rally of REAL support that Obama has had all along.
When it comes down to it, Obama has the vote count that HC doesn't and won't get.

2. It's only temporary. Obama is just the latest Johnny come lately.
Once the silly Dems nominate Obama, the M$M will turn on him with 100% negative 24/7 coverage, and bury him.

And everyone is just following along quite nicely, thank you. The M$M couldn't ask for more cooperative sheeple. Once again, they are electing our next President for us. And that's worked out so well since 2000, hasn't it?

Vote for Barack to maintain the status quo.

Vote for Edwards to shake up the status quo and bring real change. Real change is more than just a sound byte for John Edwards.

3. You make an excellent (though worrisome) point here, that does concern me...
I can see all this adulation by the MSM disappearing overnight, and the MSM 'turning on' Obama with the first mention of anything negative about him from the Republican Opposition Playbook.

I do NOT want to elect a Democratic Nominee who is going to lose the General Election. Period.
