65. Ah yes...
The same media that somehow made whether or not Obama wearing a flag pin is a story? Or is it the same media that conflated or mistook his name with Osama's?

Hillary has had two years worth of free publicity in her run up to the election. Any other candidate would have gone clover hunting for a week to get that kind of edge. And let us not forget the candidates that the media marginalized and ignored into inexistence from the start. Had this been a fair campaign I think Kucinich might have actually gotten more than 8 minutes during a 2 hour debate to speak.

Of course Obama did get a treatment similar to Hillary's by the media, but to hear one of her supporters complain about it drives me friggin nuts.
