Everybody has been aware since the Bush2 campaign that he too was covered with near obsequious--e.g. Swiftboater vs Bush record. Then too Bush was such a lightweight, people felt the need to protect him a la Fox & the NY Times. --mo I believe that Dems are quite used to the corporate bias of the major media and have seen deferential treatment to the Repubs since Regan, the teflon pres, was covered with the knowledge that to build or even maintain popularity they would have to show their acceptance of his contradictions: condemning big government as he built up government control and large slice of GD{ to the military.

Read your own writing. You call the Republicans vindictive and vicious. You see no vindictiveness in Nancy Pelosi, Barbara Boxer, etc?? At least you admit in writing to the unobjective media. that's progress. Yes there are hysterical ranting buffoons out here like Rushmore who put lots of heat and no light on an issue, but most of us would like it if he were not on our side, but he is syndicated, not main stream Read the sneering, contempt undisguised in the NY Times by highly educated columnists like Dowd, Krugman, Rich etc. Their discourse is sophomoric. Molly Ivans, R.I.P. was just as hysterical as Limbaugh.. the entire media is biased, left or right...fair media is oxymoronic.
