The election analyst you had on Today did you no favors . He belongs on Fox News. He does not recognize data that is contrary to what he wants to say and minimizes that which appears to contradict it . It is the old trick of not having an opposing voice on while you are presenting . On Politico he does not . He is smooth and not bombastic but not truthful. He lies by omission and subtle distortion . My guess he is paid for and beholding to republican . If he is not he should be.
You do not look like unbiased journalists with guys like this , especially when you do not present a counter point .
Laughing women
I just came here to listen to their opinions about the recession. All I came away with is 2 women laughing about the economy. They have no clue about this in any fundamental way. How could ppl pay $ for this?
