Dear Pro-Obama media members:

November 29, 2008

When are you going to stop trying to make everything barry does the -est ever? Yes. He raised the most amount of money ever but he did so because he lied about taking public finance. Though it's just a matter of time before all of his illegal foreign donations are exposed. And with all that money he got the same amount of votes as Sen Clinton - one can extrapolate what would have happened had they been on an equal financial footing. As it was, he outspent Sen Clinton by as much as 5-1 and per vote barry outspent McCain by $4.

Yes. His popular vote margin of victory was the largest for a non-incumbent presidential candidate but not the largest ever. Nor was his popular vote percentage. There wasn't the massive turnout you predicted. People were not voting in "record numbers". Record amount of blacks did not show up to vote. Only 2% more came out to vote for the first black president ever and the media has not done a story on what that says about Black America.

Yes. He used the internet in a novel way compared to the last election for a simple reason: Youtube and Facebook hadn't been invented yet. And Google is based in Chicago, which made it easy for Googleman to get involved.

Yes. He is picking his Cabinet quicker than anyone. It's because no president has ever had such problems facing him. In particular, the economy that can't wait another two months and now with India neither can national security and foreign diplomacy.

And yes. He has had the largest media assist in campaign history. That no longer has to be proven - by us or anyone else. But the constant comparison to previous presidents absolutely has to stop. barry has done absolutely nothing except name part of his Cabinet that cannot even make an impact until after he is inaugurated. So can you please please please stop the lovefest? Or at least wait until he's done something to deserve it?
