The Glenn Beck Interview was just awful and the way the MSM news outlets have taken his accusations and repeated them over and over reminds me of the old saying "If you repeat a lie enough times people may accept it as truth " . Associated Press is running a nasty article in particular with quotes from the Glenn Beck show that quote Debra Medina way out of context and the article is nothing more that a big fat lie .

Thankfully the people of Texas seem to be smarter than this. Despite Story after story saying she's a truther and her chances are finished I have read comment after comment saying the exact opposite and when I checked online polls they still show her WAY OUT in the lead for Governor I had no idea. I thought she only had a narrow tie with Hutchinson but according to the local polls she is way ahead.

Talk about a Mass Media Spin Dizzy ! When I went looking for articles on Medina last night I found a combined total of over 800 articles from the Washington post and the Dallas Morning News just blasting Medina as a "truther" just because she said she didn't have a position on the subject but supported the peoples rights to ask questions! The Dallas Morning News even took it a step further publicly endorsing Hutchinson. Talk about your biased media. All over the MSM world political science hacks are being exalted for saying shes finished as major news outlets do their best to debase her character.

But despite the best efforts of a controlled media Debra Medinas' popularity is still on the rise. The shenanigans of Glenn Beck have most definitely back fired and only increased Medina support while costing Beck a chunk of his former audience for underestimating their intelligence. It looks like Medina may well pull off a Scott Brown in Texas!

Damn! I need campaign donations too.

Wonder if I can get a spot on Beck's show?

It is disappointing.

He does have a lot of good info . . . but that is what makes him so perfect fo TPTB.

Tell mostly truths interspersed with some non-truths.

He is, for a lack of better words, pandering to the people who identify themselves as the religious right.
