Obama claimed that 100% of the McCain's ads were negative, and that 2/3rd's of the American Public feel McCain was negative.
It sure helps to have the LATimes/NYTimes/ABC/CBS/NBC and 90% of the newsrooms helping push the story of how negative the McCain campaign is.
Barack Obama whined that if Fox News weren't around, he'd be up another 2-3 points in the polls.
What he conveniently didn't say was that if ABC, CBS, and NBC didn't exist, he'd be down 15 points in the polls.
As for FoxNews, I wonder what Obama plans to do about it. In his world, no one who criticizes him is legitimate. Radio stations that host reporters looking into Obama's are deluged with calls from people sent by the Obama website. Television stations like Sinclair Broadcasting get their licenses threatened for running ads. Radio Talk Shows in general are threatened, as Obama thinks a government imposed Fairness Doctrine is a good idea (he pledged to sign it if Pelosi and Reid send it Up).
Time and time again, the Obama campaign has sought to hide the truth, and then silence their critics. And they've been abetted by large portions of the mainstream media.
If McCain seems negative, it's because he doesn't get a pass for doing the job of reporters.
