Obama can't dodge reality as much as the media can, so he'll be put in a very difficult spot.

No, Ten. Obama will have "inherited" a bad economy. It won't be his fault. Only Republican presidents are culpable of making economies go south.

Watch and see. He won't be charged with any responsibility for "his" economy.

Over the years, I've learned that people (e.g., the press) who make bad decisions will go far out of their ways to be tolerant of the consequences -- anything at all, to keep from admitting they made a bad decision. The media is not going to suddenly say, "Oh, we made a mistake, now we're not liberals anymore". They're going to pass the buck.

If Obama gets elected and the economy turns into crap, I don't think the media will try dressing up the crap and selling it as a gourmet meal.

What do you mean, if? I meant the economy of course...it is crap...
