Let's stop giving the MSM so much credit. It's still the American people who decide and they're showing themselves to be remarkably independent. You ought to give them more credit. We're apparently not mindless lemmings who simply do what the media tells us to.

This is a better way for us to talk to each other.
Some of us have been chronicling Fox's shenanigans for awhile:
- bringing Bill Kristol of the ever popular Weekly Standard onto one of their programs to call him a 'crackpot' and the like. Also to criticize this member of the party of personal responsibility and govenmental nonintervention in peoples' private lives for not wanting to do enough to help the poor.
- excluding him from the New Hampshire forum even though he polled twice that of Giuliani in Iowa and was the largest fundraiser of the last quarter- 10 term Republican congressman.
- Carl Cameron's question to him...if you would like to defend that, what could I possibly share with you about fairness? Did you see Brit Hume's eyes pop out of his head in one of the earlier debates when Paul brought up Israel's nuclear weaponry and her ability to defend herself? How did you like his leading question in the South Carolina debate questioning the judgment of those ships' commanders? Did you notice how agitated Hume got when Paul called the others (that would have to be Hume and the other candidates) out for their rush to judgment and threatening responses? Did you notice how Hume stopped Paul as he was speaking and began to debate with him, himself?
Why don't you let the rest of us decide for ourselves what to think about the MSM? I seriously, seriously doubt you've got the slightest clue as to why McCain's campaign has done a one-eighty. You've got your opinions, fine, state them. But, I'm probably not alone in believing your opinions aren't of much value.
