Cenk is really upset because his man screwed the pooch again. Does anybody think Barack looked presidential in this debate? Another FDR? Another TR? Another Reagan? Another Kennedy?
No, he looked like an agitated, passive agressive, and yes elitist academic who didn't like what he was hearing but didn't know quite how to handle it. Did he crash through to take center stage like a real leader? (Remember Reagan in New Hampshire?) No!
When Barack screws up, Cenk finds somebody else to blame it on. The Media. Bill Clinton. Hillary Clinton etc. Hold Barack responsible for his own actions? Forget about it. Cenk has put his personal prestige on the line in backing Obama and thrown logic and reason out the window in his latest rants. (What happened to the champion of rationalism we used to known in the old TYT days?) Trash Hillary every day but have a hissy fit if anyone dares to ask Obama a tough question that he can't handle. BOW DOWN TO BARACK!
Rome is burning and Cenk is still parsing the meaningless details of the debate.Guess what, the free ride from the Media ain't what it used to be. His canditate looked incompetent. People are watching Obama and starting to wonder if "there is any there, there?" Perception counts. That's the reality. That's politics. Deal with it.
Perception counts.
And here you are, attacking Cenk's perception. Wow, the contradiction is making me positively dizzy. Obama supporters (at least the ones with carefully thought-out reasons for their allegiance) have chosen him because of this record of action. In this race, unfortunately, that comes down to a question of "Who in this election has committed the fewest heinous acts?" That question is not a winning issue for McCain or Hillary.
(Remember Reagan in New Hampshire?) No!
I like how you answered your own question here. Efficient.
