I was having trouble figuring out what to title this blog post until just a couple of minutes ago.
For the longest time, all the political news has been Obama... Hillary... Hillary.... Obama... Hillary... Obamma... Obama.... Obama....
On and on. Seems to me like the democrats have an interesting strategy going to keep up this fight as long as possible so as to monopolize all the media attention. If it takes 45 minutes of the news hour to cover all the comments about their shennanigans, there is no time left to cover anything about John McCain.
So I decided to see if my theory was correct. I went to dinner at 7pm, and I spent an hour watching Anderson Cooper's 360 whatever on CNN. During that time, sure enough, I heard more "Obama this", and "Hillary that", than anyone should have to go through during their dinner hour.
McCain's name was mentioned just twice, and as quickly as possible. It was mentioned that a poll said if Hillary wins the nomination, then 25% of democrats will vote for McCain, and just 53% of democrats will vote for Hillary. The "senior political consultant" (they were all of at least that rank it seemed) was aghast, and moved on as quickly as possible from that bar chart.
