The Hillary vs. Rudy fix is in. Chris Matthews is at it again. How about his award winning
performance at the conclusion of the Democratic debate last night? Hillary wins....Hillary wins!
Reminiscent of Charlie Bucket discovering Willy Wonka's final golden ticket in the movie.
There is one major flaw with the Matthews biased narrative of the so called decisive Clinton
victory. The dramatic effect is diminished if you are staging the outcome. It becomes apparent if you closely examine the Matthews commentary that his talking points were carefully crafted in
advance, only requiring a simple and selective fill in the blanks exercise as the mainstream media continues to force feed us their vision for our destiny.
Oh, by the way, how convenient for Mitt Romney to finally win his gold medal in Michigan. Now the stage is finally set, the cast of characters are all assembled now. And who would dare impugn the credibility of our stalwart punditry? They did after all stub their collective toes in New
Hampshire. Just like ordinary folks right? Susceptible to a mistake. Don't bet on it.
The final element to this labyrinth web of the mainstream media power grab will be when Rudy
Giuliani defies all the laws of the natural world with his big state, duck and cover strategy, thereby securing the Republican nomination. Wow, that mainstream media is sharp, and how much better off is this nation, that at the end of the day they are so incisive as the sole arbiters of truth.
More like fortune telling if you ask me. And that really is the parallel to be drawn from this
sham of a system that we suffer with. How appropriate that we collectively refer to these
charlatans as the Media Circus. We might as well swap the polls and the pundits for horoscopes and
tarot cards. More fitting given the carnival atmosphere of this election season.
So there you have it. They told us then and they are telling us now. They never miss an
opportunity to remind us were we are headed. Just another predictable, scripted moment, carefullyinfused with more twists and turns than a legion of writers guild members could ever muster.
