Psssst! Bush Is Winning.
As it currently stands, Bush is ahead. Not that you'd know it from reading the news.

Does that mean you'll concede that the media was biased towards Bush in 2000?

I know this is the wrong thread, but this needs to be posted RE: the missing explosives in Iraq store. Yet another FUBAR>>> "Last night on this broadcast we reported that the 101st Airborne never found the nearly 380 tons of HMX and RDX explosives. We did not conclude the explosives were missing or had vanished, nor did we say they missed the explosives. We simply reported that the 101st did not find them." "For its part, the Bush campaign immediately pointed to our report as conclusive proof that the weapons had been removed before the Americans arrived. That is possible, but that is not what we reported." -- NBC News anchor Tom Brokaw, quoted by the New York Times, on the missing weapons in Iraq. The most telling line from the story: "For the second day Mr. Bush did not speak about the issue, twice ignoring questions from reporters."

With a GWB victory I believe this dispells the notion that we live in a 50-50 Blue/Red society. With all the media bias of which they have gone far beyond the norm in this election cycle and have been caught; it would be obvious that it is not 50-50 America. Even the media could not sway opinion and determine the outcome.

Should Bush win, the media comes away with everyone who's paying attention knowing that they could not swing the election. The spin will be that Kerry was such a bad candidate that even the media's help couldn't save him, and all they were trying to do was "level the playing field." Sheesh...
