Pundits and reporters are restive for the leg-tingling oratory of their Precious one who is away on a week's vacation. They are eager for him turn around the trend building against him.
The polls continue to show a decline in support for the Obama brand. Articles, such as the one excerpted below [between asterisks], that are critical of him are beginning to appear more often now.
***Although Henry V contains more famous lines, and as with most of Shakespeare's lines, these are often quoted out of context, sometimes when the speaker is not even aware she or he is alluding to Shakespeare, the line with which I began this post...
"I did never know so full a voice issue from so empty a heart: but the saying is true 'The empty vessel makes the greatest sound'"
...fits well with the context of Senator Obama's remark about himself being an imperfect vessel.***http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2008/08/hillarys_growing_shadow.html
The media can no longer present The Denver Group as a lunatic fringe as more and more delegates demand fairness at the Convention. Unless Hillary Clinton's name is placed in nomination [not just on a symbolic roll call], Democracy will be declared dead on arrival at the Democratic Convention.
What flummoxes the msm the most is not knowing who will be the Dem's pick for Veep. It is possible that the choice has already been made. But it might be delayed until the whole Convention decides who their Standard Bearer will be and demands that whichever one wins, the other must be her/his running mate.
What a kick in the head for the msm which insists that it, not the voters decide who the Dem candidate for president and veep will be. What a great thing it would be for Democracy if the DNC decides to act Democratically and allow all the delegates to cast their vote.
Neither Hillary nor Barack have enough votes to win so the Superdelegates will determine the winner - not the media - IF Democracy prevails and the DNC's own rules are followed.
