1. This seems to be your only topic.
Is this part of the GOP strategy to turn Democrats against Dean?

3. Keeping things fair and balanced
on DU requires non-Dean supporters to participate.

2. Fred Barnes was effusing over him last night on FOX
The Beltway Boys. Dean plays into the whole GOP meme that the Congressional Dems are worthless and irrelevant.

11. I think Kerry is a decent man and a fine legislator...
...and I have a hard time believing that all a Kerry supporter can find to post is a bunch of crap from them watching Fox and crying in their teacup...

19. Fox is a repug station
but they do seem to have more interesting and entertaining reporters than the competition.

Though they try to smite the demorcrats, they do allow them some airtime.

I'm sure that on a per person basis; Fox has a higher payroll than the competition IMHO

5. Why are you watching Foxx
when there are the more legitimate Sunday talk shows to embellish at the moment?

7. "Annointing"?
Perhaps it's recognizing that he IS first among the top-tier candidates? Is it 'anointing' rain to point out that it's falling?

12. Just because a tree might fall in the woods without a DU'er to hear it
doesn't mean it isn't important to talk about how Fox is propping up Dean.

13. Fox propping up Dean?
Funniest shit I read all morning. I watch Fox News every now and then and the only ones they are propping up is Bush.

15. Conspiracies are not an excuse
for running crappy campaigns.

For instance, it is not Dean's fault all Edwards talks about is his millworker daddy, enthusiastically supports the Iraq War, etc. etc.

14. Ya know,
you can do what most people here do, and not watch Faux News, instead of baiting people into watching it. Just a thought.

25. Nice try
...but you've already exposed yourself. Trying to show fake outrage at their bias is too little, too late.

21. Fox is very biased,
what I'm pointing out is how much they air Dean in a positive light and bash the lights out of Kerry and Clarke

23. Haha, well, I'm glad you can spell the name of "your" candidate...
...but it's Clark, not Clarke. Maybe you're just trying to make Clark look French though...

28. Conservatives
do that a lot. Yesterday, on Capital Gang, Kate O'Bierne was praising Dean, too.

I think they get a bit too cocky and their plan to kill Dean with kindness may backfire. If they are doing this to promote his candidacy thinking that Bush can easily beat Dean, they are being very optimistic. If things keep going badly in Iraq, Dean will beat Bush, regardless of their best laid plans.
