Debate Coverage Focused on ‘Bitter’ Remarks
April 17th, 2008 · No Comments
News media coverage of last night’s Democrat presidential candidates’ debate in Philadelphia seemed to focus on Barack Obama‘s recent “bitter” comments in much the same way as DDonar’s cartoon above does.

Realizing bitterness and hope don’t mix, rural Americans are blowing out the candles on the Obama campaign cake as fast as they can after learning of the comments below which he made during a fundraising event in San Francisco Sunday: “You go into some of these [...]
