Well, the coverage of the TEA parties didn't go as I expected. For one thing the "anti-protest" didn't seem to spring up at all, despite threats from ACORN. However, in the absense of an "anti-protest" fringe group... the media filled in nicely.
This is the most diespicable excuse for journalism that I think I have ever seen.
In all the attendance at the HUNDREDS of TEA parties was excellent. The one in PHX brought in over 5000, and on a very windy evening. Across the country, first reports are saying close to 250K people.
BTW: If you were so inclined you can lodge a complaint to CNN here.
******UPDATE: PJTV.com now puts the official count at over 500K!!!! SWEET!!!

I thought debate moderators were suppose to be impartial
So how does it look when the debate moderator for the VP debate tomorrow night is about to publish a book with the words 'in the Age of Obama' in the title?
Here she is covering the RNC. No smile. Shaking her head. Obviously disgusted at the energy in the room, at the way Palin landed full on body blows to her book subject, and very thinly veiling her repulsion at having to attend Sarah Palin's first speech where she performed amazingly.
Now watch this promo video for her upcoming book. Do you think it is possible that the selected moderator for this debate has a vested interest in seeing Obama and hence, Biden, win?

This is what media bias looks like
If there was any doubt in your mind before that there is a HUGE left wing bias in the media, that doubt should be long gone by now. The response from the media to Sarah Palin should tell you two things. Number one, they are so far in the tank for Obama that they can't think straight (then again, maybe that's how they got there in the first place). Second, Sarah Palin scares them because she is a woman who is feminine but tough. She's pretty, she's smart, she's a leader, and she's conservative. She has energized not only the conservative base, but women and independents who were on the fence. Palin has brought energy to the Republican side that just wasn't there before.
This interview by Campbell Brown is one pathetic example of what I am talking about. I have not seen ANYONE question Obama's experience like this, and he's the one on the TOP of the Dem ticket.
