More MSM Attempts to Suppress McCain Vote

As we swiftly fly down the home stretch to the 2008 Presidential election, the mainstream media (MSM) has kicked it into high gear to suppress the McCain vote and promote their man Obama.

The latest example is AOL News.

In AOL's headlines this morning, the top story is that a new ad Elizabeth Dole is running in North Carolina may seem to suggest that Senator Dole (R-NC) is conceding the Presidential election to Barack Obama.

First of all, the ad must be considered in context. Dole is in the fight of her life in her U.S. Senate race. The Democratic Senatorial Election Committee has been relentlessly attacking her in very personal ads.

One ad even had two old men claiming that Dole was 'too old' to be a Senator.

Dole's opponent is Democrat Kay Hagan, who has fully shown herself to be an opportunist who has used the present financial crisis in the housing markets to hammer away at Dole.

And, as North Carolina has fallen victim to hordes of new out-of-state residents who couldn't wait to move to the state yet seem to detest its ways and culture, the ads have worked.

Dole's response has been to remind voters that should Barack Obama win with a greater Democratic majority in the Senate and House, there will be absolutely no check on runaway legislation that would turn the stomachs of most traditional voters in North Carolina.

But AOL thinks this is an indication that Dole and the GOP have given up on McCain.

Nope. It is a very effective campaign strategy to use against a possible 'evil triumvirate' uniting Obama, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid to 'rule the country.'

McCain has shown signs of an historic surge within the last 2 weeks of the campaign. If the trend continues he will be one of only a handful of candidates in U.S. history to dramatically come from behind at the last minute to win the White House, as did Harry Truman in 1948.

It would seem the mainstream media is pulling out all the stops to prevent McCain from doing just that.
