The danger of the Ukraine fiasco
Advertisements [?]
This is getting alot of coverage everywhere in MSM. This poses a danger to our effort to get the fraud out in front of people. If this is true, it would be a brilliant Rove-ian tactic.

Ok, you know US election fraud story is going to break. Percerption is the key, closely followed by the raw amount of air time. If it breaks, as it looks like it will very soon, with CNN leaking bit by bit, the major issue will be how much coverage it recieves. If it is just a glossing over, in the simple minds of day to day Muricans, it may fudge together with Ukraine! Imagine the RW like Limbaugh when confronted with these issues:

RL: Psshaw! Where do you think we live, Ukraine?? Har de har har. Next caller


If the coverage doesn't just shout out of the TV, YOU HAVE BEEN HAD, or the air time is limited to 20 secs spot for a day or two, we seriously run the risk of suffocation under all the news. Peterson, BasketBrawl, Ukraine, more Iraq city-takings... I just hope the MSM treats this story with a little respect when they finally dignify it with precious air time. And when they do, hopefully the info is stopping in between the ears of John Q. Public, and not just whistling through because its the same words they have been using for a couple days on Ukraine.
