Poll question: We have 58 days.
Who do you think the GOP-controlled media should spend time talking about?

And who do you think the GOP-controlled media will be talking about?

1. I think we should stop "predicting" what will happen and DO everything to make sure Obama win
Too much focus on prediction - being right - too little focus on action, IMHO.

2. I'm not trying to "be right" I'm just showing the GOP how predictable they are. n/t

3. Also, what if the prediction is true: the media ignores the GOP ticket.
If we suspect this is what the GOP will do, how can we counter it?

4. We can't directly counter the media -- we can write to protest their lousy coverage and
we can register voters and knock on doors for the Obama campaign and contribute and talk with our neighbors and co-workers.

7. Should be the issues.

Will be every bit of dirt and gossip and misinformation they can dig up, especially if it makes Palin a tabloid personna or Obama/Biden look muslim or elitist or in some way evil.

11. Agreed - it should be the issues.

Unfortunately, they're not going to touch that with a 10' pole because it will make the GOP look bad.

13. Other...
...Should be: All the candidates, their records versus their claims, their proposed solutions and agendas

Will be: How 'bout that Sarah Palin?!
