Medina Dem's Take on How Compliant Media Has Hurt McCain

Josh Marshall of Talking Points Memo put out a call today for explanations on why McCain keeps making such horrible statements like calling Social Security a "disgrace." Medina County Democrat David Brown has come up with one explanation that is both intriguing and also counter-intuitive. You can read it here.

His theory is that the national media, by being so soft on McCain, has enabled him by never holding him accountable for the stupid stuff he has said up until this year. Now, however, with the advent of so many media outlets, including websites such as You Tube, it is almost impossible for the media to shield McCain from himself. Check out David's analysis by clicking on the link above. You will enjoy it.
