Musical Politicians

Dodd is OUT! Richardson is OUT! Biden is OUT! Gavel should be OUT!
It's musical politicians out there. But it sure seems to me that the national media is working very hard to shape the outcomes. Pronouncing candidates dead after one primary, (ie; Hillary Clinton, dead after Iowa), is laughable. It is virtually impossible to know which major candidate will hang in there, or bomb out after just one or two state primaries, or caucuses. And it is not fair to the candidate, irregardless of political affiliation. Look at Ron Paul. He's a fringe candidate, to be sure, but he has a real grass roots campaign and is raising money. But the national media has already squeezed him out of the debates. What a sham!
The folks whose state primaries are not until later in the election cycle get hosed! They often don't get a choice, at least not a chance to vote for the candidate of their choice.
Think about it.
