Obama blames FOX for upcoming thumping in KY.

CosmicRocker · 05-19-2008, 07:08 PM

His statement to the Lexington-Herald Leader:

"There are a lot of voters who get their news from FOX news.
Fox has been pumping up rumours about my patriotism, or my religious beliefs since the beginning of the campiagn"

Obama came on the Chris Wallace show, and came off fine - he got good reviews from the panel afterwards.

O'Reilly did a knock down drag out interview with Hillary, he gave her no quarter.
No bias for her.

IF Obama wants to reach out to WV, and KY - then CAMPAIGN!! don't rely on the media!
show some meddle, and speak direcrly to the voters.
But he's rather pander to the far left, who hear FOX, and always think they can't play it straight. Like his "bitter comments"

Truth is - FOX has played the Dem. Primary pretty straightforward, on both of Hillary's problems, and Obama's.

Sure they will go back and do Republican hatchet jobs for the general.
But Obama has been given a fair shake in the primaries.

It is because the majority of the American electorate are so ignorant that pandering works. More's the pity.

At least he is against FOX news.. Hillary is running around bragging about Rove's numbers showing that she really is electable, that makes two who now believe it.

Go ahead and rip Obama but at least he keeps the enemy on the other side of the line. Your girl will take a crumb from any Tom Dick or Harry that would give it to her, regardless of their beliefs or party affiliations.

Enemies? a line? I'm sorry i got confused, I thought we were all on the same side?

Plus who cares what Hilary does? She is over and done with now.

Unfortunately many won't be able to accept that.

What choice do they have? What are their alternatives?
Not voting? Voting for McCain?
How many Obama-Only supporters have made the same
threat, had the situation been reversed?

Guilty here, believe me I feel their frustration.

It's just more weakness on Obama's part with rural white voters.
Instaed of complaing or blaming FOX news ( pathetic) - come meet the voters.

I guess he is too elite to come down and viisit the folks.

Unfortunately, it's a reality in America that in order to be elected President, one has to appease the nationalists and state-worshippers. He's had the patriotism police after him since he started his campaign, so I guess he decided to capitulate and wear the arm band--erm, I mean flag pin. He just has to be seen to be paying tribute to the Flag-God, whether it's genuine or not.
