If it wasn't for the four-year msm media pounding, Bush would have won by 15 points. The interesting fact is that the country is shifting right as evidenced by the congressional election results.

What was the name of that Newsweek asst. editor who said that the MSM's bias toward Kerry was worth 15% of the vote? I believe it. Had the MSM fulfilled the role of an objective reporter of the campaign, not as a cheerleader with a partisan agenda, Bush would have won by probably 18% (the 3% he won by, plus an additional 15% for lack of media bias). A 59%-41% Bush vs. Kerry win -- a Reaganesque margin of victory -- sounds about right to me.

We can be greatly encouraged by the fact that the MSM threw everything they could at Pres. Bush, including making things up when they ran out of ammo, and he still won.

This is the fact....this election wouldn't have even been close without the lying, whoring media. They have become so Un-American as to be laughable.
