Have you heard Fox discuss Thompson as all tonight? - he is persona non grata.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

This is very different from any other campaign I remember. Boith Thompson and Hunter have the same problem. If Thompson had the attention that the MSM gave Ron Paul, then he would have carried Iowa.

The MSM are truly king makers, and they must be defeated somehow. I get a kick out of Hunter too, the other persona non grata.. He got votes on the slate in many caucuses without spending very much at all.

The reason why the MSM , including Fox, ignore Thompson and Hunter is for one reason: They both have the potential to unify the right wing of the Republican Party, and ever since the lead up to Nov. 2006 when the right stayed home, for good reason,the MSm has wanted to keep the republican right disunified.

Can Thompson and Hunter get to the Republican right and get them behind Thompson/Hunter, without MSM help?

That is the $64,000 question.

The MSM is not nearly as powerful in the small venues such as individual states. There is still a chance.

The MSM gave Paul very little attention—many didn’t even include him in their polling data. The only Republican candidate with less attention from the MSM than Paul is Hunter.

If we could start a national campaign to get folks signed up for FreeRepublic, where ever anyone came down they would at the very least be completely informed. Bypassing the MSM for the new media is where the war of this Countries future lies.

today, listening to the Frank Luntz interviews... it’s bad out there.
