They list Ayers, Kilpatrik, William Jeffersen, Ferrero, What kind of Bullshit is ABC spinning. I hear they had one on McSame but it was very tame compared to this bullshit.http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=5002928

6. I don't think that even Britt Hume would be that direct, no subtlety at all.
A childish heavy handed amateur hack job.

7. Okay let's
so a top 10 worst VP picks for McCain.

Rev Hagee.
Duke Cunningham
Jack Abramoff

could start out the list.

I'm sort of surprised at Jake Tapper for this. He used to be pretty decent.

8. We should bombard them with e-mails and phone calls then.
I did not see it. I just got back from spending the day in WI with my parents. I am not sure I would have wasted my time on ABC news/political programming anyway.

Is the activist corps doing this sort of thing for the general election?

It's like one of those dumb New Year Highlights videos.

10. It's nothing like a Letterman top ten list.
No it's not a Lettermans top ten list, it is a way to connect Obama to all these people like Ayers and Kilpatrick and unlike Letterman it's not funny.

11. Its Economically Rational For ABC/Disney To Support The GOP
I explain in the following thread how over the past 4 years, ABC/Disney and Fox/News Corp are trying to ensure GOP control over the whitehouse, not due to political bias, but because they want a GOP president to appoint the commissioners to the FCC. This relates to the media ownership fight as explained in this thread on the General Discussion board:
