1. I think most DUers know to ignore MSM spin
I'm hoping the rest of the public has figured it out as well. Most folks I know of aren't even thinking ahead to 2008-they're more worried about paying the bills right now.

3. Um, there are other candidates out there.
Enough with this Obama/Hillary crap. Lets watch an actual debate with everyone involved and then we can say where the race stands. Its just too soon.

5. not only that
but doesn't Newsweek realize that Richardson is Hispanic, and that we've never had a Hispanic president or vice president? Or did I miss something.

Newsweek is trying to create buzz. Facts be damned. It's sad, because I expect better from Jonathan Alter, et al.

4. if they can generate a horse race

they can generate excitement. if they can generate excitement,
they think it will generate circulation.

or that's their theory.

they don't give a damn about the issues, or the election. they
give a damn about the bottom line.
