Obama's 2007 Yes-We-Can Moment in 2009
Like the 2007 primary campaigns, the growth of the Obama organization has gone almost without notice in the run-up to the 2009 health care battles.

By landing a media gig in New York or LA, Palin would have a chance to catapult her brand beyond all other potential candidates.

It's time to pull the plug. Call off the resuscitation team. Bring in the coroner. Health care reform is dead. Obama gave it a good shot, but it was doomed from the start.

As a film, Media Malpractice is porn for people who need to hear what they already believe to reassure themselves that they are not wrong for getting behind lackluster Republican leaders.

To my astonishment, Ziegler freely admitted his preference for Sarah Palin as a presidential candidate was based not on any specific policy, but because "she gets it."

The preposterous media coverage of the (few) unhappy Hillary-ites is what inspired McCain to select as his running mate someone who would virtually destroy his campaign.

Giving up the Blackberry gains Obama protection only in the limited sense that 1) he will create fewer records than if he used it, and 2) the records he creates will be more likely to be vetted.

Regardless of party affiliation, women saw the coverage of both Clinton and Palin as "too negative" and without adequate substance.

Mark Halperin called the press coverage of Obama during the election a "disgusting failure." Well, then, a charge like this demands some investigation. Let me see if I can smoke out this alleged "disgusting" and "extreme" pro-Obama bias.

As Obama inherits a severe economic crisis, two wars, and myriad other problems, it will be too easy for media issues to get pushed down the to-do list.

The new generation of media-savvy voters will take full advantage of the abundance of news and will add their voices to what will become a national, 24/7, no-holds-barred town hall meeting.

Instantly networked communications allow anybody see whatever they want and tomorrow's public exercise in democracy will be the first example of a massively transparent election.

Many in the media just can't force some misguided brand of phony objectivity this time around -- not with so much at stake.

If there's one thing about this presidential cycle that so excites me so much is just how much more irrelevant the traditional media has become.

What I find interesting about this first Internet political campaign is that nothing goes away. YouTube didn't exist in 2004. It was created in February of 2005.
