re: #246 LGoPs

The reason it was a weak connection with the voters is because the MFM decided to make it a weak connection and downplay it or ignore it.

I can’t agree with that, it was in the news for weeks and simply did not take root. Yes, the MSN is liberal leaning, but the issue certainly was not ignored. I recall lots of digging for a smoking gun, block buster headline. Fox for example, beat it to death for months. If the right had more information, I’m sure we would have heard it.
I think the McCain campaign ignored the issue because their own polling showed it did not resonate except on the right.
