I heard a statistc today that said 69% of people think the media is trying to get one candidate or the other elected. 57% thought Obama had received preferential treatment. Apparently even Democrats can see it. Do you agree that the media is biased? Does this bother you, no matter which side you're on? Isn't this dangerous in the long run?

(((57% thought Obama had received preferential treatment. Apparently even Democrats can see it. ))))

Were all people included in that 57% democrats? You don't know, so where did that 'even democrats can see it' come from? lol. One is not related to the other as far as we know. Barack has not received preferential treatment. He gets more coverage, but that coverage is negative.

So, how 2-faced for the McCain camp (because I know he is NOT in charge over there) to be jealous of Barack's coverage and then whine that Barack is getting better treatment- AFTER McCain accused the media of mistreating Sarah. Schizoid and circular. The McCain people need help.
