Applesauce
Pat Cunningham offers an unabashedly liberal perspective on national politics. A note of caution: The language gets a litttle salty on some of the sites to which this blog links. So, don’t say you weren’t warned. By the way, this blog’s name is inspired by the Will Rogers quote, “All politics is applesauce.”

This is the third time I’ve used that delicious headline (which I boosted from the Huffington Post), but it’s especially appropriate in this case.

The latest bit of Obamaphobic craziness making the rounds on the Internet is the theory that the Democratic presidential nominee is flying to Hawaii today not to visit his ailing grandmother but to murder her because she can prove he’s not an American citizen.

Read all about it HERE and HERE and HERE.

Media coverage of the presidential candidates is tied to their standings in the polls

A new study by the Pew Research Center’s Project for Excellence in Journalism SHOWS that media coverage of John McCain or Barack Obama tends to become more negative when the candidate loses ground in the polls.

In early September, for example, as Kit Seelye of The New York Times reports, McCain was “enjoying a post-convention bounce. He was leading Mr. Obama by about 5 points in the Gallup tracking survey, and his press coverage was more positive (37 percent) than negative (32 percent). Mr. Obama’s coverage was twice as negative as positive.” But then the Wall Street crisis emerged, and McCain’s fortunes declined.
