David Gregory just now: "Is there some blowback against Obama that he's buying this election?"
Because he is apparently (gasp) buying ads in markets where McCain has given up?

I don't know about you, but I hope that once we put this election behind us (that's where our effort needs to be now), that we here on DU can start a campaign to throw David Gregory's sorry ass (and the rest of him) off MSNBC.

2. If you want to throw Gregory's sorry ass off MSNBC
then why the fuck are you watching his show? You're just increasing his ratings, making it less likely that they do so.

11. I am pretty sure that unless the OP DVR'd the Gregory show or he is a Nielsen diary submitter....
Edited on Wed Oct-15-08 05:32 PM by prodn2000
Then the OP had no effect on the ratings for that show.

17. After how many years of the GOP buying elections with megabucks???
Why am I not surprised it's David Gregory saying this? I generally think most journalists are attempting impartiality but Gregory is an obvious RW mouthpiece.

19. The best way to get rid of him is turn him off.
Send an email to msnbc and tell them your not watching his show anymore and don't watch his show. He'll go the way of Tucker Carlson before you know it.

yes we are David Gregory - there's a reason why Obama is getting donations up the wazoo - we want him to win and it takes money.

A few million of us "bought" Obama.


Get it right David.

35. He used to be fun to watch at Chimpy's pressers
He'd ask the boy-king tough questions. But since that prom dance with KKKarl, he's had a huge mancrush that he just can't get over.
