OK Michelle, I know it's tough, but tell me which plank of the Republican platform is the Murphy Brown plank....I think I missed that one. Quite sincerely, I don't expect anything less from you. I wasted time posting the "real Murphy Brown" story and you could only respond by saying well,>>it's still their fault, they need a better publicist....I can't tear myself away from the idiotbox long enough to find out what the real story was<<. You've obviously submersed your brain in so much mindless, TV Land Drivel! that you wouldn't know an objective truth if you tripped over it and landed on your couch-potato dimpled ass....... bp

Michelle - Murphy Brown "issue backlash" didn't put Clinton into office - Bush's "read my lips: No new taxes," the little nut from Texas and a spectacularly supportive media got Clinton there. For just one media example, remember the Dan Quayle "potatoe" spelling story? You remember how much airplay that got? Do you also remember Bill Clinton's speech where he responded to the "no military experience" challenge with the "Abraham Lincoln was never in the military, and most people think he was a pretty good president" statement? Do you remember the press reaction to that? It was trotted out on all three of the nightly news programs with statements like "Mr. Clinton addressed accusations about his military record by pointing out the fact that Abraham Lincoln . . ." Did you know that no one in the media ever challenged him on that - until after the election? That's how we "got" a Bill Clinton in the WH. "Family values" is now a Demo code phrase for scaring young, undereducated, insecure women away from Republican candidates. Mr. K.
