Good news is American voters are aware of the media's infatuation with and promotion of empty Obama.

Song of Obama

"The Drudge Report ran a juicy item about the fact that only one reporter showed up to cover Republican John McCain at a campaign stop in New Hampshire the other day," Chicago Tribune columnist John Kass writes.

"Just one.

"The lonely print reporter from the Manchester Union Leader stood on the tarmac, waiting for McCain's plane to land. McCain, obviously upset at being dissed by yet another meager media throng, didn't stop to chat," Mr. Kass said.

"'Did you ever notice that when John McCain is on TV he's always grumpy?' asked a colleague in the cafeteria who whispered, lest others denounce him for Barackian Thought Crimes.

"'McCain's always made to look old and angry, a curmudgeon. And Barack Obama? He's always seen as presidential, cool, smiling, shaking hands,' whispered the guy.

"I believe this phenomenon is called liberal bias. And the country has caught on.

"Since I mentioned it a few days ago, newspapers, Web sites, radio and TV news have been full of stories about media bias and outraged denials, recrimination and guilt. Always the guilt. Obama's people know we're guilty.

"Guilt is what McCain is playing on, too, trying to shame journalists with a new video with dueling soundtracks about the Media Love that Dares Speak Barack, featuring MSNBC host Chris Matthews shrieking that when he hears Obama talk, a tingle runs down his leg.

"Predictably, McCain blew it by selecting lame songs for his video. He should have used 'Barry Angel' sung to the old dusty 'Johnny Angel' or my personal favorite, 'Oh-Bama' sung to the 1958 hit, 'Oh, Donna,' back in the Route 66 days when McCain was young and not so old."
