"liberal" (HA!) media tell them who to vote for. Obviously, the "liberal" media got Bush* a lot of votes in 2000, when the pro-Bush, anti-Gore bias was ridiculous, like nothing I've ever seen before, and the "liberal" media just helped California elect a muscleheaded governor who can't pronounce the name of the state.
The "liberal" media has shown all through this campaign that they like Howard Dean and Joe Lieberman but don't like Dennis Kucinich. I'd say they'd prefer Dean or Lieberman to win, but think they might be able to work with Edwards, Kerry, or Gephardt. Kucinich, Braun, and Sharpton scare them so they marginalize them and tell the audience how "unelectable" they are.
Kucinich/ Edwards or Edwards/ Kucinich might be just the ticket, assuming DK can pull Edwards more to the left.
Footnote: I just checked an anti-Edwards site which charges that "he voted with the Democrats 94% of the time in 2000" as if that were a shocking thing, a Dem voting with his party most of the time. They think he should be more like Zell Miller, less like Ted Kennedy. Maybe DK won't have to pull too hard on Edwards -- some NC folks think he's already too liberal! :shrug:
