Why does Candy Crowley cover Obama? She sounds so
disappointed when she speaks about how well he's doing! They should release her to kiss McCain and Palin's ass full time!

3. Agree
Candy covered Kerry in 2004 and was very negative about him

7. Ah, not so. I saw her smile, beam, and send loving, shy glances at one candidate she interviewed.
Back in 2000, she was one of the first mainstream journalists Bush agreed to interview with. Her demeanor could only be described as worshipful, and she asked questions of the basic tone of "Governor Bush, we know you are the greatest person alive now, but could it be said that you are in the top ten of all time?"

So she's not just a grumpy person.

11. If CNN hadn't assigned her to cover Bush, I'm certain that she would have stalked him...
...so deeply delusional was her obsession.

17. But after 8 years of being disappointed in her hero, she is now grumpy and
disillusioned. ;)

20. True love is forever, and overlooks petty faults like criminal activity, epic failure, and boils. nt

6. Hee-Hee 'Creepy Crowley'!
:rofl:

Now I'm picturing Palin as Miss Muffett--- but instead of being scared off her tuffett, she and the spider share hair and beauty tips.

9. She did the same thing when she covered Dean.
Her disdain of him and his supporters was obvious.

13. Crowley is usually assigned to "cover" the Democratic candidate.
She is smart and sly. She knows that her real job is to do what ever she can to diminish the effectiveness of the Democratic candidate.

15. She is a large (No pun intended) part of CNN's rightwing
"News" programming - slam the Democrats in all things at all times.

They used to be a great news network, but they are just Republican whores now, every fucking one of them.

16. Crowley tent and awning...
Is it just me, or is she getting uglier over the years? My god man, if my dog had a face like hers I'd shave its ass and walk it backwards. (I know, old joke)
