THIS WAS POSTED BEFORE YESTERDAY'S DEBATE-SO IT REALLY IS A BIT DATED,HOWEVER
IT STILL APPLIES, IN general.
The dems need to stick together positive(last night Eddie & Rachel did), but loose lips sink ships.
Kudos most go to Al Sharpton last night, as always 100% correct, without an error.
ANYHOW-this was post yesterday from someone on Kos-

"How about reserving your anger for a more deserving target: the idiot left wing punditry.
With the benefit of a couple of weeks and a few more pieces of information emerging, the following seem clear to me:
1. Romney did win the first debate, but he did so by lying his ass off.
2. Obama's performance was not remotely as bad as the hysterical firebagger pundits proclaimed. They, not Obama, caused the most damage.
3. Had the liberal pundits instead concentrated on exposing Romney's lies, he would already be dead in the water. Their failure to do so is a betrayal of democracy.
4. A significant part of the shift in the polls has been caused not by any actual movement but by the switch from registered to likely voter models.
5. Some of those likely voter models use some highly questionable screens which appear to tilt Republican way more than is justified.
6. The media is routinely reporting polls of likely voters against previous polls of registered voters as if they show a shift, when they do not.
7. The media also pounced on unreliable polls from Republican marketing organisations, as opposed to reputable polling organisations, and pronounced that they indicated a shift from Obama to Romney when they did not.
In short, Romney did get a small and short-lived bounce, but 95% of it is entirely a media fabrication."
