And how about conservative media?

Fox, talk radio, Dow Jones, the Wall Street Journal (second most widely read paper in the US I believe) are all generally considered to be "conservative" in nature and Fox News is the most widely watched Cable news network.

Can not the conservative media destroy candidates especially considering its high popularity

Of course conservative media can do the same.

But denying that liberal media have an agenda, or that they can destroy Republican candidates are ridiculous.

I keep telling myself there is no way that they would be stupid enough to organize something like this.

I never thought we'd ever have a problem liek we did with Acorn either.
 
yeah, but that was political amateurs, people who didn't know better trying to influence the process in ways that ultimately backfired. You gotta figure Axelrod knows that we live in a post-Rathergate world; and that kind of stuff simply won't survive the actual scrutiny it will receive anymore.
 
When will most of you on the far right wing realize and accept than most Americans do not live in the same world that you have mentally created for yourself? That is why you cannot understand why Obama will probably win and why you cannot understand what is happening to the GOP primary field long before one primary vote is ever cast by one American voter.

The right wing does not live in the same America that the rest of us live in.
 
You would just have to be simply blind to not recognize a liberal bias in the media. However, you would have to be an ideologically driven moron to blame the problems these candidates have on the media. Gingrich has made his own bed. Romney's positions change with the wind. Cains problems are obvious. Paul is a joke. Perry...come on...seriously? Bachman spent the first part of her campaign kicking her own butt. And the parade is SO horribly tragic to watch (kinda like a train wreck you see coming but you just cant look away) that the few legit candidates get no visibility. maybe if Huntsman picked up a few male bondage hookers and went on a weekend long coke fueled bender, he would get some front page coverage.

He'd get press, but it would all be a lie made up the the Liberal media. Because Huntsman is really a liberal. Wait, now I'm dizzy from the spin.

When you really press conservatives, most of them admit that McCain wasn't a very good candidate. Then they go back to to blaming the media conspiracy. But liberals aren't smart enough to carry out a conspiracy....damn, I'm dizzy again.

Can't be any more confusing than the whole Bush was an idiot/Bush managed to trick every democrat in congress lie. McCain was a bad candidate. Reality is I havent seen a decent one in 30 years. I am quite sincere when I say that I would be all for putting Clinton back in the white house for 8 years.
 
The Tea Bag far-right destroyed the GOP. The media was just there to document it.

You're right about Huntsman. Intelligent and moderate, I'd vote for that in a second.

Then the GOP wouldn't vote for him because they already have Gingrich.

In the end, The Tea Party will actually save the GOP.

And the country.

I totally understand that a democrat is paying someone to lie about Herman Cain.
 
I never knew neo-conservatives/libertarians were such huge conspiracy theorists.

Cain's communication director J.D. Gordon said in a statement late Monday that Cain's opponents were behind Bialek's public accusations, noting her representation by high-profile attorney and Democratic supporter Gloria Allred.

"After attacking Herman Cain through anonymous accusers for a week, his opponents have now convinced a woman with a long history of severe financial difficulties, including personal bankruptcy, to falsely accuse the Republican frontrunner of events allegedly occurring well over a decade ago for which there is no record, nor even a complaint filed," the statement said. "It is noteworthy that Gloria Allred is a celebrity lawyer who specializes in generating publicity for herself and her clients."

"Kraushaar now serves as a communications director at the Inspector General’s Office of the Treasury Department, a position she has held since 2010"

Still looking for that money handed over that you are alluding to. Until then:

I dont think there is a conspiracy but I do think the major media outlets take a great deal of glee in grabbing rating by slamming the rep of whichever GOP candidate is the front runner.
The get ratings, they serve their agenda. Its a win win for them. Conspiracy? Nah, but I bet they do dig harder for dirt than they ever did on Obama.

The media is just like he politicians. Politicians are looking for corporate donors and the corporate owned media are looking for big $ corporate advertisers. Both will reflect whatever gets them their goal.

Rick Perry's a Democrat? If we believe you that a Democrat is behind this, and believe Cain that it's Perry, there's no other logical conclusion.

You may have noticed that Cain isn't threatening to any Democrats right now. He did however, steal the "Not Romney" vote away from Perry. At this stage of the campaign, it's far more likely that he's being torpedoed by one of his rivals for the nomination.
