even with these 2 states obama still has the popular vote. The idea that obama some how stole the election is retarded

You're right. Right wing pundits generate more excitement because they peddle a message of hate and division. It's the same fire and brimstone tactics that the medieval Popes were using when they were selling tickets out of Hell to the populace. They appeal to emotional thinkers, not logical thinkers. Thats why they stick to issues that dredge up negative emotions like Terrorism, Immigration, Race, and Patriotism.
Must of learned that from the Left wing Pundits of the pre-Rush days, as they were the only people allowed to speak on the Radio and TV, back then. Rush arrived and changed the parodying, and the left wing talk show died a sudden death, from lack of interest, lack of ratings (which translates as that they didn't generate sponsor revenue] and boring and illogical, subject matter that even their liberal listeners couldn't stomach. If your message is so great? why don't it sell? If your message is so great? why don't people listen to it? If your message is so great? why do people in drives turn the dial? Logical thinkers don't listen to illogical thought's, and the left has the corner on the illogical thought market. Hell the only reason NPR and PBS are still alive in the broadcasting business, is massive government subsidies.
Just as your example of: Ah, yes, the left wing, They appeal to emotional thinkers, not logical thinkers. Thats why they stick to issues that dredge up negative emotions. Yes Ganymede, thanks for the fine example.
No actually, Democrats have so abused the liberal ideas, that they don't stand for anything any more. Actually Democrats stand for everything, which means they stand up for nothing.
Exactly, Liberal pundits generally lack the name calling, generalizing and sound bitting that conservative pundits use, instead Liberal pundits general go for intellectual discussion which is either boring or for the liberal (who uses critical reasoning) still bias information. Thus the liberal pundit losses the idiots who are bored by their general lack of childish behavior and they also loss the smart ones for their general lack of unbias input. In general Buffalo your also using a fallacy, what people want and believe is not always the right thing, examples would be wanting to kill those that claimed the sun was the center of the solar system, and belief the earth was flat. People are usually stupid and would rather watch a raving idiot rather then a thoughtful lecture. Fixed.
Buffalo, you make me laugh...thanks. I liked listening to Rush back in the days when he restricted himself (pre-bush era) to making fun of the idiots on the fringe of the left wing. Now I listen to him because he is the only thing I can get on talk radio. But at least it informs me as to what he and his coherts are doing and gives me a chance to pick apart is illogical arguements. But frankly, it gets boring. The same old fallacies, I can tell you what he is going to say before he says it. So now, as much as I like talk radio, am moving back to FM. One more point of reference, the pre Rush era was the era of the Fairness Doctrine that would not allow Limbaugh, Fox and Hanity to do what they do. Back then you had to give both sides of the story.
Sell what to whom ? It doesn't sell SUVs to fools with money, which is its major problem. Has anyone been following the major advertiser boycotts of even slightly lefty media offerings ? This has real power, now that the Fairness Doctrine and other interferences with corporate whim have been gutted.
Buffalo, I am neither Democrat or Republican. I am an AMERICAN. And I vote for the best canididate regardless of party affiliation. I have voted for Democrats and I have voted for Republicans. I was a McCain supporter before he stabbed me in the back and became a Bushie...those seven plus years ago. In your world, I am a liberal because I do not buy the Republican Party line nor the Republican canididate. That is fine. But the truth is I am an American and I am for America and the people who live here...grew up here. And I am tired of seeing my country run into the ground by the party in power, and that happens to be Republican. So you can call me what you will, but I am an American and I want my government back!
I noticed no lack of name calling by liberals........ Rose O'Donnal, will tell you that conservatives are angry, homophobic, racist, misogynist people. For years now the left has labeled anyone who disagrees with them "racist" or "sexist" or homophobic", Nazi, crazy, mentally disturbed, nativist, KKK, ............To continue....
Rose O'Donnal is not a political pundit, she a pathetic actress. Usually not at the rate conservatives namecall. Besides some of those labels may actually have merit, compared to say "unpatriotic" and "a Muslim" uses on obama.
Really really. Prove he not a muslim? Why that like trying to prove mccain is really and american! I'll prove obama not a Muslim when you prove mccain is really an American. Its simply paranoia and racism to think that just because the man is black and has a Muslim like name their for he really a Muslim, just as silly as supposing just because mccain was not technically born in the USA he not really an American!
You prove it, the burden of proof is on you, not me. When you accuse someone you have to prove their guilt, the accused does not need to prove their innocents, hence is the way of "innocent tell proven guilty".
For all the animal lovers and PETA folks, and native Americans, I apologize in advance for any offense..none intended. This not very politically correct, but it gave me a little chuckle and points to some underlying truth about our elected representatives. An Indian walks into a cafe with a shotgun In one hand pulling a male buffalo with the other. He says to the waiter: "Want coffee." The waiter says, "Sure, Chief. Coming right up." He gets the Indian a tall mug of coffee. The Indian drinks the coffee down in one gulp, Turns and blasts the buffalo with the shotgun, Causing parts of the animal to splatter everywhere And then just walks out. The next morning the Indian returns. He has his shotgun in one hand, pulling Another male buffalo with the other. He walks up to the counter and says to The waiter "Want coffee." The waiter says "Whoa, Tonto! We're still cleaning up your mess from yesterday. What was all that about, anyway?" The Indian smiles and proudly says ... "Training for position in United States Congress: Come in, drink coffee, shoot the bull, Leave mess for others to clean up, Disappear for rest of day.
Obama cheated by getting money on compaign advertisement through illegal ways, that is why his advisor resigned...because he loaned money on the compaign he was not supposed to have done http://afp.google.com/article/ALeqM5gXvhak2H3UHPlyhY6M4hmdBpU3TQ
