MSNBC's "perception primary"

Chuck Todd is an asshole. He keeps saying that even though one candidate may come out with more delegates, it's all about perception. What he really means is that the media can declare the winner despite what the actual numbers say.

3. since the SC primary the media have worked to no end to push

and promote BO for the upcoming Super Tuesday, they knew he was way behind in most of the polls, notice how they never gave those polls then? It's really sickening. A week after the Uncle Teddy endorsment they were still talking about it like it was the most revolutionary thing to happen in politics in 3 decades.
