    Watch last night ?
    All conservatives do..so they know what I am talking about..

    About 7 minutes of FREE SANTORUM TIME with a staged team cheering behind him.. giving the impression he is surging with overwhelming support of everyone down south. ( Sean Hannity )
    Sean doesn't ask any question like why cant you win outside the bible belt..but allows Rick to continue to misrepresent Romney as a liar.
    RICK..you flipped on abortion and supported health care Mandates..Now tells us who's not telling the truth ?

    Then On GRETA..is was Newt's turn..no hard questions either.. just more of the same allowing FREE CAMPAIGN TIME..

    Sooner or later it will need to be asked OF FOX...WHY no real vetting of ex employees ?

    For the Romney team Pawlenty was allowed to speak..by then...I was so mad ..I TURNED THE CHANNEL..maybe FOX will get it when they see people stop watching UN FAIR and UN balanced News.

    CNN at least gives some balance to the fact the other candidates not named Romney are NOT doing that well...

    I do wonder..where was Paul last night on fair and balanced..you may not like him or vote for him ..but why not equal coverage ?
    Why allow a phony prep rally to be televised..or some guy with 2 state wins to speak like he knows everything in history ?
    Cheesy grits indeed...only CNN had the balls to talk about the anti Mormon vote down south..Fox ignores it..Like it doesn't matter..

    Maybe it should be renamed the fair and balanced Evangelical News station.

    If they haven't seen this isn't the case by now, I doubt they ever will.
     
    Romney is not the GOP’s man since he is too liberal, and Paul never will be on the GOP’s guest list since he is a true conservative, something the republican party will never be.

    Last night I accidentally watched the CBS Evening News for the first time in years. They didn't mention the campaign but got the Republican candidates' reactions to a news story about Afghanistan. Three candidates appeared on camera. Ron Paul wasn't mentioned. There was no reference to the weekend's caucuses. I don't know if anyone here watches the major networks, but many people get all their news from those networks and I wonder if they even know Paul is in the race.

    @ BN.

    That may be true or not ..or just your opinion..the fact that FOX doesn't even ask the tough questions you KNOW TEAM Obama will ask..
    or follow up on wild claims by Rick..
    "like I have been outspent 5-1 and finished 1st or 2nd.."

    Gee Rick.. in a general that wont work..YOU LOSE.
    If you cant raise money and finish with more 1st place votes now..how will you later ?
    Did Rick win in Florida..or Ohio..or H.H or Mass. ?

    Some states the Republicans will need to TURN.
    He has only won tiny votes in MN..and other bible belt caucuses.

    After this week it gets tougher on NEWT and Santorum..Not Romney.
    Those Fox facts aren't reported..but CNN does a great job showing them.

    newt is counting on a sweep today.. Louisiana and Texas..do the math ..he cant win anyway.
    Same with Santorum after this month.. winner takes all up NE.
    Where economic leadership counts more than a man's Religion.

    My Mother in law who is 75 only watched CBS until she got the DISH.
    She is amazed how she has been steered away from what is really happening.

    Up in MN our local news has about 2 minutes on gas prices then goes to feel good stories..a total cop out with everything that is happening in the world today..ANYTHING pro democrat is shown in depth...such as the protesters against right to work..
    Nothing if it is bad..just a mention and another minority feel good story..

    I was listening to Hannity's radio show yesterday, and I noticed that he explicitly doesn't mention Ron Paul - for instance he made statements such as "And the three remaining candidates..." three, instead of four. There is definitely a quasi blackout of Ron Paul on Fox. I don't think it's as bad on CNN though.

    One of the ironic things about evangelicals and such is that Santorum, Romney, and Gingrich are not protestants. The only protestant left in the race is...Paul.

    I'm more amazed that Newt, a proven lobbyist and cheater actually has more cover them Paul...

    What a disaster....Newt is TOTALLY UNELECTABLE...:no:

    Corporate media, and the best darned corporate arse kisser in the bunch, probably has something to do with that...

    Santorum portraying Romney a liar is one of the actual honest things he does.
    The OP REALLY needs to get off Romney's dick.
