Is anyone else as bummed out as I am by the media reaction to McCain's "stunt" yesterday?

Newt Gingrich and Dick Morris declared on FNC that McCain's sudden trip to DC as "brilliant", but that's sure not how I'm hearing it portrayed in the media today, even on Fox News. Rush, Hannity, Laura Ingraham, Howie Carr and other conservative talk radio hosts are excited by it, but it appears that Obama, Pelosi, Barney Frank and the 'RATs came off as the party who "saved the US economy" (I know it's not true). McCain's actions came off as a cheap political stunt, and he ended up giving in to Obama and doing the debate tonight.

Also, Sarah Palin's "disasterous" interview (not my title... I saw only about a 5 minute clip of it) with Katie Couric is being played over and over... the libs are gleeful of Sarah's poor performance, and even Kathleen Parker (?) of the National Review and Bernie Goldberg are cringing about Sarah's recent performances.

I love Sarah, but she's coming off as not having an original thought in her head (all talking points), and Biden the Clown is getting a free pass by the drive-by media.

And Obama is ahead in the Gallup and Rasmussen polls today, among likely voters. FNC did a report on how Obama has over 43 offices set up in Virginia, to McCain's sparsely-staffed (with volunteers only) 15 or so offices. Virginia hasn't gone for a 'RAT president since Lyndon Johnson in '64.

The media and 'RAT voter fraud will do anything and everything to get their guy Obama elected... and I'm starting to think that they will probably succeed.

Anyone else worried...?

this is NOT the upbeat comments we need to hear.....Sarah was set up by couric and we all knew it would be so......NAME TWO OTHER BILLS McCAIN HAS PROPOSED......hooey....the man has a 26 year career.........then what did the perky pest do? she banned the word governor before sarah’s name in the transcript.......petty, petty. I am not going to lose any sleep over the wench.

McCain IS a statesman and Americans will recognize this...Obama was the one to yell and lose it at the White House.......they are telling tales and it will come out....

Have faith. Stand tall. We will win.

I’m waiting for Barack Hussein Obama to say, “People of earth” and then I’ll feel fabulous!

The media bias is so massive, one can’t help but be worried about it. Even many Obama supporters admit the bias. One can only hope that the media’s flagrancy will backfire again, as it did shortly after Sarah Palin was nominated as VP.

Worried Yes, but its a long way to November. Things tend to turn rather quickly. I did not see the Palin interview, but i suspect she (and the campaign) are being overly cautious about the barrage of attacks coming her way and have ask her not stray far from the script. She needs to be the person she was at the convention, an attack dog. But now its time for McCain to shine. If he does, he wins, if he doesn't we'll see you in the reeducation camps.

If McCain risked his life saving a child from being hit by a train

and Obama stood watching - -

smoking a cigarette,

the MSM would condemn McCain for grandstanding...

extolling the "new cool" of smoking.

I’ve been worried ever since McCain became the candidate.

Let's see, he wants to appoint democrats to his cabinet, wants to appoint left-wing liberal democrat Andrew Cuomo as head of the SEC, has a liberal, Lieberman, instead of a conservative speak at his convention.
