Do people really think that the disconnected pundit reviews influence viewers????
Are people really that weak-minded that they could watch a speech that was objectively bad and disjointed, and change their minds because Tweety, Wolf, David Gregory and the rest of the gang are scared that McCain might not invite them to next year's bbq???

1. I hope not. They really fuck your mind up, though.

4. Thinking back to the reagan years
I'd have to sadly say that, yes, people do let it influence them.

11. For the last 8 years they have been mind melding with the
Limpballs, O'Leilly, Mathews and others. But while they weren't looking they lost everything under this administration and now they are slowly waking up.

For 25% of the US population they will always want someone to lead them and they will never ask any questions, even if they are lead straight off of a cliff.

For the rest of America I think they are sick and tired of the MSM not reporting facts. It's interesting to see the MSM not knowing which way to go.

They lied us into a war, and so now, we know.

16. YES! That is Why They Are Called "Swing Voters"
The Tee Vee told them that Bush** won the debates in 2004.
The Tee Vee will tell them that McAin't won them this year.

The swing voters will believe it. That is why they are called "swing voters".
