Networks Pan Reid Debate Performance, But CBS, NBC Still Skip Democrat

NBC's Today was the least critical, announcing only that Reid had "…
The Sophistry of Chris Coons' Professed Loyalty to the Constitution

MRC's Bozell Addresses Harry Smith's Swipe at Tea Party 'Anger' on Oct

WaPo Defines It As 'Public Awareness' to Say GOP Will Release Terroris
While media liberals obsess about negative ads funded by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, federal worker unions are savagely attacking the Tea Party in a forthcoming radio ad campaign.

ABC's Stephanopoulos Still Thinks He's a White House Spin Doctor
There is a simple explanation for President Obama's dismal approval ratings, but ABC's George Stephanopoulos fails to comprehend it. Appearing on the October 13 "O'Reilly Factor," the former Clinton adviser peddled multiple theories to explain Obama's unpopularity, but neglected to consider the possibility that the president has simply failed to connect with the general public.
"As far as…

ABC Hypes Michelle Obama's 'Star Power' in Wisconsin, Skips Any Mentio
According to Good Morning America's Sharyn Alfonsi, the White House is hoping the "star power" of Michelle Obama will be enough for the Democrats to beat the Republican senatorial challenger in Wisconsin.

Lib Talker Malloy: Karl Rove 'Traitorous Rat Bastard' Who 'Makes Deals
The liberal media have had a field day with conservative Delaware Republican Senate nominee Christine O'Donnell saying years ago on "Politically Incorrect" that she had dabbled in witchcraft in high school.

Time's Klein Harps on Chamber's 'Foreign Money' While Leftist Mother J
Although experts from plenty of liberal-leaning news agencies agree that the Obama administration's complaint about the Chamber of Commerce allegedly spending foreign money on campaign issue ads is overblown, Time's Joe Klein is dead set on griping about the non-scandal.
From his Swampland blog post yesterday:
Karl Rove is a great American patriot, a genius, a statesman, even. And now he…

Rodriguez's declaration was later followed by a…
'Taking Back America' Wasn't Racist Until Liberals Stopped Saying It
As it's grown in influence and power, the Tea Party movement is increasingly being attacked by fearful liberals looking for ways to paint it as racist. One of their favorite lines of late is that the desire to "take the country back" is actually veiled bigotry, even a call to return to institutionalized racism. Considering how many liberals used this phrase during the Bush 43 administration,…

On Thursday's Good Morning America, reporter Claire Shipman knocked Christine O'Donnell for a "cringe-inducing" answer during a debate, Wednesday, but downplayed and ignored awkward moments from the candidate's Democratic opponent.
