Colmes has to be the bearer of bad news for Hannity when he gives the post-debate poll results. I'm sure Hannity's blood pressure rises every time. It's my opinion that Dr. Paul's best chances for real success are in CALIFORNIA. It's also the media capital of the world, so his efforts there...

It's sad but true. The media shape public opinion on every issue and every candidate. Did you watch Frank Luntz's focus group? Even they talked about how they worried about Thompson's chances even though they like him. That's because of how the media talk about and portray him. Of course, I...

New Hampshire voted for McCain, the warmonger. I guess the people there are very nostalgic about the Vietnam War and only hope that the Iraq War can do it justice. Did anyone hear his supporters chanting "U.S.A." while he spoke tonight? It was frightening. The bottom line is that New Hampshire...

The media control politics in this country because they control the thought process of the majority of the electorate. The people will vote for whom the media talk about! That's the point of advertising. Candidates are now a product. Policy be damned.

The reason politics has gone downhill over the past 60 years is because of TELEVISION and not because women got the right to vote. There are three factors that, unfortunately, determine elections today: looks/style, a famous name, and media attention. Most people probably don't understand what...

Hillary is ahead right now because New Hampshire wants to defy Iowa and some people now have pity on her, especially after that acting performance yesterday. She really knows how to get that pity out of people. I guess she was trying to emulate Sharon Stone.

Of course, I myself don't think they're attractive, but some women do (women who aren't beautiful enough to live in L.A.) Human sexuality is sometimes bizarre and inexplicable. Looks also includes things like posture and body language, so let's not overanalyze.

I'm talking about the Republican voters. Besides, how does a female voter supporting Hillary Clinton really contradict what I said? Many women admit that they would only want a man in the White House, and I suspect that women who strongly identify as feminists would vote for Hillary Clinton...

Look...someone may be upset by my saying this, but it is true that some female voters base their vote on looks, whether consciously or not, and they love Huckabee's puppy dog eyes and tone of voice, they love Romney's coif and stern gaze, and they love McCain's reserved anger when he speaks. It...

We are witnessing the cult of personality live from Nashua, NH as McCain speaks to his minions.

Well, I know I did my part by mailing some letters to independents in Michigan.

Absolutely. Newspapers are a very effective way to reach senior citizens, especially very local newspapers that have coupons and local advertisements. Though, I think the elderly naturally support candidates they remember, such as McCain and Clinton, and also candidates somehow connected to...

This would be true, in my opinion, only if the consequences remained in a particular state, but here there are consequences for the entire country. Shouldn't the selection of the federal government be more uniform? Meaning....a state could probably choose whatever selection process it wants for...

That's really only a concern for the Democrats since the writers probably already have plenty of contempt for Republicans in general.
