I noticed that CNN is planning Election Night coverage Tuesday

[RandySF]

I don't recall this much attention to local elections four years ago when the Republican got their asses wiped. I guess they are looking for another stab at declaring the Obama Administration a failure.

1. You've got that one right. Here in VA they're saying a Repuke victory is anti-Obama fever.

11. in my part of virginia they're mostly saying deeds ran a poor campaign

2. I see local as something other

than 2 governors and a house race.

3. Well, if you need help sleeping, tune in.

CNN is soporific--you have to grant them that.

4. Who knows why. n/t

5. If nobody watches (I know I won't), perhaps they won't do it again

They think that rating can be had by taking advantage of the right-wing bigotry.

6. Watch for the St. Petersburg, FLA mayoral race!

It's the fourth largest city in Fla..and lots of defense contractors etc., as CentCom is right over the bridge in Tampa, FL

Ford is leading....she is for the people and ready set to win..up 5 points. Her opponent is a "creationist" who believes that the dinosaurs lived WITH humans, and that the Earth is no older than 6 million years!!! OMG!!! And....the St. Petersburg Times ENDORSED HIM!!

It's all because they want a NEW baseball stadium when the one we have for the losing Rays is just fine.

12. Creationists actually think the earth is no older than 6,000 years - n/t

7. There was a little bit of coverage of the 2005 elections

and in 2001, I seem to remember the cable news channels being obsessed with the NYC mayor's race, and otherwise ignored the Democrats pickups of the governorships in New Jersey and Virginia.

8. Christie

CNN is getting as bad as Fox News. They are posting crap about democrats but the neglected to have a message up on the political ticker about this.

Christie has ties to the Geneovasa Crime Family. He is a cousin. And he attends the "family" reunions. Gee I don't think I would want that kind of connection in the governor's mansion if I were from New Jersey. But maybe they don't know it.

Corizone hasn't mentioned it, but I bet you any thing if the shoe was on the other foot rush, fox and the whole darn republican slime group would be shouting it. AND he was appointed to his position with the bush administration on the recommendation of rove. That right there would be my turn off.

9. i sure hope that my tiny ward elects a democrat

to borough council to prevent a palin presidency in 2012

10. So is MSNBC. . Rachel teased the coverage last week. . . . n/t
