Are they fawning or are they following the market for a story?

Fawning and creating the market, pretending to be kingmakers.

Nope they like his supporters are swooning for every word, following him around creating the hype, hiding his faults or in your case simply ignoring them. |

I don't ignore his faults. I am not happy about his FISA vote. Is McCain any better? Nope. Advantage still goes to Obama. |

When Bush supports fisa it is a capital crime, when the Obama supports it, it fostes mere unsatisfaction....  |

No there is no bias in the media.  | While McCain is quietly greeting the regular folks in townhall meetings and laying out his plans, Iraq Obama has the eye's and ears of the entire world upon him.
There will be no do overs on this tour. His people have to clarify his statements/positions everyday as he utters, mutters and stutters on questions from the 105 mph fastball thrower Katie Couric.
The glare in his eye's said it all, as the little morning coffee table queen smiled and had to ask the same question three times.
I guess the unilateral no precondition meeting with Iran will be an interesting one after he said this: "My view is that the United States' special relationship with Israel obligates us to be helpful to them in the search for credible partners with whom they can make peace, while also supporting Israel in defending itself against enemies sworn to its destruction" Obama supports Israel. Period. - Haaretz - Israel News
Then there's the whole Maliki fiasco: There is some irony in the fact that Democrats, after years of deriding Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki as a hopeless bungler and conniving Shiite sectarian, are now treating as sacrosanct his suggestion that Iraq will be ready to assume responsibility for its own security by 2010. Naturally this is because his position seems to support that of Barack Obama washingtonpost.com - nation, world, technology and Washington area news and headlines
The Dems call him a "hopeless bungler" until he agrees with Iraq Obama, but now even his (Maliki) position/statement on withdrawal is being debated.
And that's from the left wing Washington Post. Ouch.
Yep, stay tuned for more from his "Magical Mushroom Tour".
I'm hoping Hillary shows up in Germany to work the crowd for a few Euro's to pay off her debt, now that would be party unity, and newsworthy to boot. Iraq Obama - Complete withdrawal / Invade Pakistan

Are you saying that I should be for impeachment against everyone who voted for it? My sticking point is the immunity. I don't think there is any need to usurp govt. oversight. That's what the courts do. They judge the legality of actions and determine penalties. |

Lean: Moderate Gender:  Awards: | Re: MSM bias towards obama The MSM is biased toward Obama because he is the only choice other than McCain, AKA Bush the third.
To directly denigrate McCain would be seen as elder abuse, so lauding Obama is the only hand the MSM has to play....
