It is amazing how the lib medias attempt to infuse people with the “certainty and inevitability”of a Clinton victory has brainwashed people on this forum.

The election is 14 months away, the polls mean nothing at this point and even if you want to place some credibility in them what about her sky high negatives. The media never really mentions them or the fact no one has ever one with them as high as hers. It will be most difficult if not impossible for opinions formed over 16 years to be altered in about a year. Especially with the ongoing scandals about the campaign finance in CA as well as the new one with her latest Chinese friend, HSU.

The lame stream media has lost much of it’s influence as is evident with the success of the Swift Boat vets in 2004. If anything they have less credibility and reach then they did then.

WE have several candidates who can speak about the importance of national defense and it’s importance, something no lib can do. And make no mistake about it, even with all the hoopla about the health care issue, it is only important to about 8% of people who were asked about what is most important. Iraq and the economy came in at, I believe 26 and 24% respectively.

The mission of the lib media is to dishearten and discourage the Republicans so they will not bother to vote (the inevitability factor). Just stay focused on winning and VOTE!!

You have encapsulated what I’ve been saying for almost a year...when everyone was rushing out to try and pick the Republican to face the democrats...I was saying SLOW DOWN...this thing is starting way to early.

People want to criticize Sen. Thompson for starting his campaign “late” when he was actually starting it right on time.

The MSM and the Libs are driving this early election cycle like a runaway freight train for the precise reasons you stated.

Bravo!

Keep saying that. I tell you it is a broken record around here with that. All through 2005 and most of 2006 FREEPERS were saying ignore the polls. Even one month before the election they were saying the democratic sample is higher. UGH!!!!!!
