He has already joined the ranks of the Media Who Have Lost It, so, now he goes a little farther with his “OMG, Barry could actually lose!” whining
Can Barack Obama actually blow this thing? Can he actually lose in November?
Yes. Check the polls, Roger.
We have a deeply troubled economy,
It has some issues, and Democrats running around, including Barack Obama, saying we are closing in on the next Great Depression sure doesn’t build confidence by the American people
an unpopular war,
Which barely gets a mention in the media anymore, is barely on people’s radar, and, is actually almost over, thanks to The Surge that Barry opposed, and continued to say was not working
a very unpopular president
Congress is even more unpopular, Roger, and, BDS aside, Bush is not running
and a historic reluctance on the part of the American people to elect the same party to the White House three terms in a row.
Check the polls, Roger.
“Dear (insert name of news source here”
At what point should you be forced to give up your press credentials because of massive bias which leads to journalistic malpractice and a complete lapse of journalistic ethics? How are you different from the Blogosphere, which tends to add opinion to news stories?”

First off the polls mean nothing. It could swing either way, it really could and no one will be certain until election day. Second its true that we have a deeply troubled economy and sometimes we need to hear the truth even if it hurts to hear it. Now this war business is unpopular. Even if no one talks about it its still unpopular, just ask anyone if they are for it, the answer will be no 70% percent of the time. It will never end either and we spend more on our army than any other nation in the world. I would rather have my tax paying dollars go to fund a school or fix the streets than pump more money into this war on terror. Now that is not to say I am not gratefull for those who have lost their lives fighting for us, I just think its time to get out before more people do.
The president is unpopular and McCain has said the same thing. They say this because people rally against him so its almost like he is the bad example and the candidates are the good examples and people can relate to that. Now people also see another republican running for office and are scared to vote for him because they don’t want a repeat of the last 8 years (not saying that he wouldn’t change everything)
All of that together I hope you can see where Roger was coming from. In order to have an unbiased look on this campaign everyone needs to examin each candidate and not fall for this opinionated stuff.
