What was the common conventional wisdom from the media during the election? The Obama campaign was focused, disciplined and savvy. They were so sophisticated in the new media that they always out flanked McCain. There was nothing they could do wrong.

The President is set to give a make or break speech next Wednesday. Support for health care reform is slipping, in fact, it's cratering. He needs to gain all the momentum he can get going into the speech.

They are not the most sophisticated media group ever in the White House... they just had the loudest megaphone in the MSM.

Obama was never media savvy. He was constantly screwing up.

It’s just that the media covered for him.

“It was so simple, a cave man could understand it.”

And this was the money shot:
“Van Jones believes policy is a tool of social justice and income redistribution”
