2. Yeah, I heard that too. I call bullshit. They just want a horse race for ratings.

6. No, I actually think they want McCain to win

This is not about a "horserace". The corporations that own and support the MSM stand more to gain from four years of a McCain administration than mere ratings in the last week before the election.
