They're going to portray Kerry and Edwards as being young and dynamic and optimistic and there's going to be this glow about them, collective glow, the two of them, that's going to be worth maybe 15 points.

I think he's overestimating the waning power of the old media by about an order of magnitude...

The Lamstream media couldn't derail Ronnie when he ran against a liberal, couldn't derail Bush I when he ran against a liberal, and won't be able to derail W come November. Wishful thinking by a typical lefty who thinks he has power.

"They're going to portray Kerry and Edwards as being young and dynamic and optimistic and there's going to be this glow about them,"

Of course, the fact that Kerry is several years older than Bush won't get in the way of that. And if Bush were not optimistic, he NEVER would have gone into Iraq. And the fact that we've never had a modern president as buff as Bush won't matter either. To hell with the facts, just spin it.

Can't say there's anything said there except what one man says... and he says he just "thinks". You hear people saying one way or the other- right folks call it the liberal media, and left folks say it's "so-called". I've always been of the opinion that the media is biased toward whatever will kick up a fight, because there's nothing less interesting than agreement to a news man.

Here's something the mainstream liberal newsrooms can't do anything about - - TV ads.

This one is AWESOME! It takes a minute to load (if you have cable modem) but it is WELL WORTH IT!

Check this out (Click on the link and just wait about 30 seconds. You may be prompted for additional "quick time" software. If you are, click 'okay' and that download takes about 3 seconds):

It appears as though Newsweek has put Edwards in front of Kerry on the cover. Now, why would that be?

Could it be because Lurch scares small children and makes normal people get the creeps?

Is Evan Thomas moonlighting for some teen magazine?

Right on! Good to hear! 15 points at least. I say 20. Heck, make it 30*.

Anything less will be soooooo disappointing. Heh heh heh.

* Obviously this is hyperbole. But anything that raises expectations and depresses turnout is a vey good thing.

It is particularly good to know that the Lib media has been apprised to carry the well coached/orchestrated, Kerry-Edwards love fiction to the max as well.

But convincing America that these are the 'sunshine boys'. . .has to be up there with making 'pigs fly'. . .

. . .what would this party do without their 'smoke and mirrors?
