Bloggers are to Blame

Posted on 11/03/2004 3:58:23 PM PST by burwellstark

I can't believe what I just heard on CBS Evening news with Dan. They are blaiming bloggers for the inaccurate poll numbers and the artificial Kerry confidence yesterday.

Dan's meltdown with Ed Bradley was painful to watch.

C'mon let them think that. It makes them obsolete all the faster and its better than the DU theory that Rove leaked the fake exit numbers so that the Dems didn't bother to hire enough lawyers.

Blogger's, Drudge, and talk radio were somewhat to blame for disseminating the bad info. If it worked, it would have been a brilliant stretegy of using our own new media against us. It is somthign to be very aware of next time around.

Dan, using his own terms, has mentally bought the farm.

The man was pure psychotic last night, defenbding everything and denouncing any calls for Ohio even when all campaigns ceded it and 99% of the vote was in.

Hahahahahaha! They are truly pathetic. WE WON, YOU LOST. Keep acting like the spoiled, biased children that you are. We want everyone to see that your emperor has no clothes.

YOU commissioned the polsters

YOU used their data

YOU were wrong again

Translation: Andrew Sullivan said Kerry was going to win by a landslide, and being the dopes that we are, we actually believed he had a clue.

Is that amazing or what? Truth be told though Drudge and NRO deserve the slap because they opened themselves up to it. The numbers were obviously bogus - I mean Obvious! Some of us try to warn them and NRO for example said, "Well don't blame us." The numbers never should have been published, or if published, should have been questioned strongly as part of the publication. So, they got what they deserved.

I watched CBS as much as I could while Rather was on. I couldn't get enough of his shocked expression. It was so beautiful.

Yes Dan it was a conspiracy by us Bloggers. You were so easy to fool. You are a bias dumb-ass that would believe anything if it conformed with your preconceived notions. We knew you would fall easily for any poll that showed Kerry wining!

That's true. Even the sage himself, WFB, had bad intelligence yesterday and believed that Kerry would win. See nationalreview.com

All is in the eye of the beholder. I enjoyed watching
Rather writhe. We all must face the fact that there comes
a time when we have outlived our usefullness professionally.

That's what democRATS do--blame everyone else for their failure and never own up to their own. Victim mentality.
