One of the fun parts of being the host network of the debate is finding out first who the campaigns are lining up to spin for them post-debate.

The campaign with the most interesting spinners on their team for tomorrow's CNBC/MSNBC/WSJ debate: Fred Thompson. His campaign has requested Spin Room credentials for one-time presidential hopeful/former Virginia Sen. George Allen as well as Liz Cheney, daughter of VP Cheney.

They said that about all the candidates, as in spinning. So I guess biased against Republicans? Yes, I can see that.

I had to use the headline they had on their website.

“Spin” and “propaganda” mean pretty much the same thing, and while both are usually thought of as pejoratives, they aren’t necessarily so. They’ll be spinning, all right, but that’s what thet’re supposed to do, as everyone else in the “Spin Room” will be spinning too.

The comments on their website sounded like DU and were absolutely nasty toward Liz Cheney. What did she ever do to insult anyone? They hate George Allen too, and Fred. And all Republicans and conservatives.

I really like Liz Cheney representing Fred.

Hope to see one of the candidates put Matthews in his place during the debate.

That would really give them something to “spin” about....

Soros plants are in FULL evil mode recently. The EVIL SATANIC LIBERALS motto is “DIVIDE AND CONQUER!! That’s EXACTLY what’s taking root lately here on FR!

Hope he doesn't call Ron Paul a macaca...

I apologize for that headline, the worst thing about this is the use of the word spin. Plus, I didn’t write that! Is there a way to improve the headline? The article just has a bit of basic information about the debate.

You can ping a mod by hitting abuse on your own post and then write in what you want. LOL, please don’t hit abuse on others!

I don’t know any other way to ping a moderator, have tried writing it in but it says ‘not found’!
