Agreed. Remember how screwed the GOP was supposed to be in 2002 because of Democratic anger over the Florida recount? Jeb Bush was all but a dead incumbent walking. Ooops.

I keep fantasizing that an articulate conservative Presidential candidate will speak publicly and cleverly about the leftist media bias during their campaign. If this candidate would continue to give specific examples on a daily basis, and Lord knows there are dozens each day to point out, these emboldened commies/socialists would be forced into the shadows for a while. The delivery is what is important. Presidential candidates are scrutinized by many, many media outletts. This candidate could finally unveil what we all know to be true giving sometimes humorous, sometimes outrageous examples of left wing media bias.

It would force the media to back off and "appear" to be more fair. In the process, many people would be educated about the bias in which they have been oblivious. Granted, this candidate better have extra security protection (and I'm deadly serious), but it is way overdue that a Presidential candidate use the DBM's own words to topple them with.

Excellent idea. Only to find such a brave candidate. Politicians learn early to not p.o. the media ("Don't take on the press. They buy ink by the barrel", etc.). Our person would have to come from somewhere other than the political arena, like a Steve Forbes (but drop the stary eyes) or Ross Perot (but without the paranoia).

"I keep fantasizing that an articulate conservative Presidential candidate will speak publicly and cleverly about the leftist media bias during their campaign."

As soon as a candidate would DARE to do that, the Media which they NEED to get elected will come down on them like the Gates of Hell have opened...

"If this candidate would continue to give specific examples on a daily basis"

Then you would never, EVER see him on television again...
