Today Show ping.
Sheesh. Old media is so lame.
"Isn't it, uh, sorta understood that the Swifties probably wouldn't be funded by, you know ... Democrats?"
Exactly. Funny, but I haven't heard the morning shows breathlessly report that Move.on's ads are funded by Democrats.
LOL! Even the WP gets it.

It will be interesting to see if all the networks use the same talking points...
Good work!
And by the way, Kerry wants sportsmen to know that he is also a . . . Deer Hunter.
Sounds like non-denial denials all around this morning.
It's my belief that when Jf'K got home from Vietnam and began spewing venom while our guys were over there he turned many into Republicans.
When I saw my then young Navy LT husband ordered to wear his civilian clothes to Pentagon and remove his uniform because of all the harrassment from protesters (lead by Guess-Who), it made US BOTH Republicans!
I wonder if Al Gore is sorry he invented the internet. :)
We'll know they're series/serious when they invite some Swifties on...don't hold your breath...
> So for all the liberal media bias, every minute of coverage they devote to the issue is one minute not spent glorifying some new Kerry spending proposal, bashing W over the 'jobless' recovery, condemning the troop redeployment as 'pure politics,' etc.
I hope you're right. They say there's no such thing as bad press; I don't think I agree. We've got the column inches now, but is this an innoculation against the truth of the charges? The battle for truth rages, domestically as well as in Najaf.
Unless the extra-strength Sumatra coffee was getting to me, I think I did see a brief clip of O'Neill on one of the shows. Not a live interview - where he couldn't be edited - but at least some coverage.
I'd put it this way: Kerry is reduced to playing defense. And some of the charges are clearly sticking with some of the electorate. I really don't see any downside, unless it could conclusively be proved that the Bush campaign was secretly behind this - and that's not going to happen.
The VRWC strikes again. Or maybe it's just that the Truth wants out? Nah. That's too scary for the lib crowd. Back to scrambling the message.
If and when Kerry really starts to sink in the polls, how long will it be before the MSM starts whining about "the 2004 equivalent of the Willie Horton ad"?
