   SICILIAN PAPA…and all of you other folks that think that we’re in the midst of a horse race…

   Let’s get this first thing straight- EVEN IF the jobs number were to come-in at 200K+ tomorrow, that is horrifically PATHETIC in a Recovery since it barely covers the regular infusion of Americans that naturally enter the job market on an ongoing monthly basis. Average Recovery numbers are 500K+ unless you’re Ronald Reagan with an actual plan implemented by adults. In his case, 1MM+ for 7-straight months was the result…

   …Look, here’s the deal- this election is over. Even if there is some unforeseen stupid-assed mistake of some sort by Romney, it is not a matter of if he wins, but whether Obama win enough states to count on one hand or actually wins over 10….PERIOD. I’ve got the numbers the campaign pays a million bucks for and it is literally mathematically IMPOSSIBLE for Obama to win…

   …now, you may all please continue with your worthless hopin’ and a prayin’.

   “You’ll probably still have your hat.

   This won’t help CNN either”
   _______________________________________

   CNN’s problem is that they’ve bought into the narrative that it’s the media’s responsibility to be ‘balanced.’ The consequence of this is that CNN is trying really hard to be a safe haven for politicians from both sides to come on and just spew nonsense, while uninformed, clueless personalities like Blitzer lob softballs, lest they be accused of bias.

   ‘The Media’ is nothing more than a collective of humans, and there’s no such thing as an unbiased human; CNN, and most other networks for that matter, have lost touch with the fact that they’re supposed to be a check on authoritative power, it’s their responsibility to hold powerful people’s feet to the fire. It’s not their obligation to convey a balanced dose of BS, it’s their obligation to be HONEST. Caustically, brutally honest. Instead, they’re deathly afraid that Washington will stop talking to them, so they’ve turned themselves into little more than a Washington D.C. PR firm.

   Nothing bothers me more than seeing CNN interview DNC and RNC strategists, or worse, having them participate on panel discussions for coverage of the parties. Political strategists aren’t policy experts, they’re not experts on economics, they’re not experts on governing, they’re experts on marketing. They’re paid liars, amoral mouth pieces trying to find the best way to sell a product. There isn’t two sides to the truth. In their cowardice, they are actively participating in creating a misinformed electorate.

   Mathew:: Bravo, excellent analysis…these strategists are just spin meisters, preying on people who do not research on their own…Being a republican, i will admit when my party screws up as people do screw up but how in the world can Debbie Schultz never, ever find a screw up when its her party, to the point of appearing like a stupid robo call…

    Secret Service looking into DNC delegate who wants to ‘kill’ Romney

    CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A spokesman for the Secret Service told The Daily Caller that the agency is aware of video showing a delegate at the Democratic National Convention expressing a desire to “kill” Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney.

    “We are aware of it,” Secret Service spokesman George Ogilvie told TheDC on Thursday.

    He said the department is “taking the appropriate follow-up steps” with the woman.

    Video surfaced on Wednesday of a woman identifying herself as New York delegate Julia Rodriguez telling The Blaze, “If I see him” — in reference to Romney — “I would like to kill him.”

    In the video, Rodriguez says she’s from Puerto Rico but she now lives in New York. She expressed her desire to kill the Republican nominee after saying “Romney will destroy this country.”

    Ratboy–interesting stats. Looks like lots of FOX viewers like me are not tuning into the DNC. Didn’t FOX get 8 million for the RNC.

    I’m on your side. The numbers overall are terrible but the perception is reality. The lib. media will spin the numbers as a sign that the economy is ready to boom. That may be all Obama needs. The media is a nice poodle to own.

    They couldn’t fill the stadium and that is why they moved it. The Messiah would not look good talking to 20,000 people in a 70,000 seat stadium.

    So my guess is that the ratings for Wednesday won’t be as strong because of the NFL game, but we shall see…

    Steelworker Featured at DNC Didn’t Work for Bain
    Email 67 Smaller Font Text Larger Text | Print

    The Democratic National Convention on Wednesday featured three speakers billed as “former employees of companies controlled by Bain Capital.”

    They each told compelling stories about jobs lost, allegedly because of the actions of Bain under Romney’s leadership.
    But it turns out one of those employees never actually worked for a company controlled by Bain Capital.

    @ Doug Z

    could there be much more of this blantent BS that comes out of the DNC? Whatchamacallit Schmultz has been caught telling more lies than she has curls, you got the whole God and Jeruselem thing and that scam vote where the vote result was already on the teleprompter for the mayor to read even though the vote didnt go that way, then the Booo’s from the crowd when the yes vote won, the stadium change for the speech, and the laughter gets louder and louder.

    Why dont you have them plan your kisd bday party?
