The Alternative and Rare Liberal Media = Suicidal?
Just a quick note about how the alternative liberal media is killing themselves (imho).

Example: Randi Rhodes nastiness toward Clinton. Olbermann's nastiness toward Clinton. KOS's nastiness toward her. Other speakers and sites as well.

Don't they realize they are pissing off about 50% of democrats?

Is there no way they could have been more fair to both Democratic front-runners and stuck to mainly attacking McSame?

I was practically in-love with Randi until she started going down this road...

Now, I will vote for either candidate, but I am severely pissed off by some of my favorite heroes of the airwaves and interwebs.

crooksandliars.com and bartcop.com are the main sites I stick to lately. The former sticks to attacking GOP liars. The latter is pro-Hillary but says almost daily he likes both candidates and will promote either Democrat.

/end mini-rant

1. Do you really only read/listen to sources that agree with you? Isn't that the problem with the MSM?

I read all manner of things that disagree with views I hold -- I like Keith Olbermann because he states his honest opinion, no matter what it is. I hate to tell you this but more than half of Democrats agree with him where Hillary is concerned at this point.

2. Don't you find it strange that three people (Randi, Keith and Kos) who

are really into politics, all come to the same basic conclusion? I think we can rule out conspiracy or wave of sudden mental illness, so what is it that makes three smart people choose one candidate over another? You think it might be the candidate? (Oh, and you forgot to add Stephanie Miller to your list.)
