Kerry has the backing of ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, NPR and all the major newspapers in the nation. 75% of Americans believe that conservatism is cruel, war-like and only for the rich. What he thinks or speaks is really not the issue... the issue is to defeat Bush. The issue is to embrace further socialist programs, open marriage to sexual deviants and mock Christianity.
Kerry may have the support of ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC, NPR, The Washington Post, the New York Times, the LA Times and several other big newspapers; however, he definitely does not have much support on the editorial page of
The Wall Street Journal, the premier newspaper in this country, if not in the world.
Kerry has no support in the Washington Times, an increasingly major newspaper in the United States.
Kerry has little support (in the scheme of things) on the two "news" media that are rapidly replacing TV network news, much the way that TV network news replaced newspapers, Talk Radio and more importantly, the internet.
