Not even vaguely true.

Okay, so we each have our opinions. Mine is from the POV of a centrist, yours is from the POV of a socialist.

McCain is behind because the economy is uppermost on people's minds. And McCain is weak on economic issues.

McCain is PERCEIVED to be weak on economic issues. If one actually bothered to look at track records (which you guys, somehow, manage to avoid in Obama's case) it is apparent that McCain has more strength on economic issues than does McCain.

The big difference is the media. The media wants Obama and they're determined to make it happen.

McCain is behind right now for one reason only - the media is trying to install Obama."

Not even vaguely true. McCain is behind because the economy is uppermost on people's minds. And McCain is weak on economic issues. And a huge reason that is true is that he has always shrugged it off, to the point where he has stated he knows nothing about it.


This blaming of everyone else except themselves will lead to the death knell of the GOP.
