That's because there are more media outlets than the Big Three and CNN these days. The New Media apparently isn't in bed with the so called 'Civil Rights Leaders' as the other Media has been for years. As a result, The Rev. Jackson's press hasn't been as 'glowing' as it has been in the past. People are beginning to recognize him for what he truly is, a race-baiting extortionist! So if he endorses someone for office, folks will look at that person the way they look at Jesse; that can't be a good thing for that candidate!
That said...I certainly hope Landrieu calls in billy klinton, hillary klinton, tommy daschle, maxine waters, louis farrakhan, sheila jackson lee and al sharpton to help her out.....nothing like some sunshine to help voters make up their mind.
