Quote:"media love affair" - Why? Because Obama was in a hotly contested primary and was covered more initially (along with Hillary). Boo hoo.Ok, I don't understand how the media love affair can be denied. The drama behind his VP selection was fucking annoying at best. For an ENTIRE WEEK I saw news headlines speculating who he would pick, when he would announce it, etc. "OBAMA MAY CHOOSE TOMORROW".. "OBAMA MAY ANNOUNCE THIS WEEK!" Holy fucking christ people, it's not news until it's actually news. McCain on the other hand... "McCain picks Palin".. and it was over... and the DNC convention coverage and news leading up to it? like someone already said, "HISTORIC" was used way too often, the parallels between Obama and MLK were hilarious (maybe make the comparison after Obama's accomplished something?).
I don't support either candidate, but I keep waiting for the media to announce that Obama is the second coming of christ.
