The Main Stream media hopes that if they don’t mention the election, many folks will forget about it and the only substantial block of actual voters will be those the ‘RATS bus to the polls.

They are afraid that the Voters who only vote for the possible winning side
might do exactly that. Hide the truth, spin the facts. If they don't talk about it,
it never happened.

The only ones who will forget about it are the ones we don’t want to vote anyway. This could work out well.

I don’t understand how ABC News has managed to have ZERO segments on the mid-term elections. In some parallel universe that has to be fraud.

You could fill that studio with other 800-pounders like IRS, open southern border, “red lines”, Ebola ad nauseam.

“The only ones who will forget about it are the ones we don’t want to vote anyway. This could work out well.”

I agree. Who watches the LS media, libs or conservatives? Who watches Fox? This could work out real well. Let’s just not have any Ferguson news before election day.

If you know what to look for, the propaganda media tells you what is really happening. Maybe things are better than I think.

To talk about the election they would be orced to talk about the scandals.
I would guess that 60% of the RAT voters do not even know about any of them,
while the majority who do, choose to ignore it and call it Repub dirty tricks.

Good. The low information Democrat voters will not know there is an election.

It is ‘da woild’ against Mary Landrieu!
It is time to send Obamacare Mary/Katrina Mary/Spawn of another dynasty Mary/Blonde from Dah Chawklit City Mary, packing!

After the pre-recorded in Shreveport/broadcast Statewide on PBS (with a noticeable time delay between lips moving and the words coming from the TV) last Sunday afternoon, I am re-evaluating whom i will be choosing in the early elections that started on Tuesday. (It’s either i pay bus fare, to go to the Parish courthouse for early voting, OR, I pay cabfare back and forth from a deep-in-the-back-neck-of-the-woods-without-bus-service high school.)

They don’t have to as long as the bosses know there’s one. I ordered an absentee ballot this year to see how it works. They sent it to the house. I had to put in the barest info and then sign it, seal it, send it.

The bosses get their list of 1000 names, they send in for ballots, they arrive in the mail, and then they guy has a month to have about 10 helpers go to each house to fill it out and get it signed. That’s about 3 a night, so in reality, only 1 or 2 houses.

I think ABC News has a cable channel now, but literally nobody watches it.

They’re running out of “two-minutes hate” segments.
