To: HonestConservative

We’d better not fool ourselves...the Mainstream Media is very powerfull. One good conservative dropped out today and they’re trying to bury the last one in.

A punk kid just out of college who posts the snippets on the new tickers across the bottom of the screen has more influence than we do on this forum.

The MSM knows it, too. The Democrats know it. The Liberal journalism professors guiding these kids into the media know it.

I try not to be shocked at how gullible people can be...even so-called Republicans.

Well, if in fact Fred does drop out, I would guess Rush is going to support Romney.

It gets worse for Fred , McCain 33%, Huck 27%, Romney 20%, Fred 10% - still 0% reporting

Yes, but don't rule out Thompson's laziness too.

The other problem is we are letting the Leftists and the Junk Media in the early “Open Primaries” pick our candidate.

Time after time in the exit interviews you get this sort of line...”I really agree with Thompson on the issues but I voted for candidate X because Thompson has no chance to win”

Not a single sound reason why these early states should be allowed to swing this much in our primary with their stupid open voting rules but they do. It seem that, unfortunately, average voters are now too stupid and lazy to think for themselves.
