Joe Unloads: MSM Bias Against Mitt

Joe Scarborough, former Republican congressman from Florida and host for MSNBC's morning show unloaded on the blatant MSM media bias against Mitt. Video:I would just add to the states that Romney won among Republicans---New Hampshire:

As the numbers tightened during the night, a different, more favorable picture for Mitt has emerged. Initially the reverse on these issues. MyManMitt:

Romney wins the vote of those who approve of the War in Iraq (37% to McCain's 33%), whereas McCain wins the vote of those who disapprove of the war (44% to Romney's 19%).

Romney wins among those who identify themselves as Republicans (35% to McCain's 34%) and among those who consider themselves Conservative (38% to McCain's 30%).

In fact, Romney has won among Republicans in every state so far. And I don't usually quote Ann Coulter, but in this piece she is not trying to shock liberals, just point out the obvious, which needs to be said:

One clue that Romney is our strongest candidate is the fact that Democrats keep viciously attacking him while expressing their deep respect for Mike Huckabee and John McCain.

This point was already extensively covered in Chapter 1 of "How To Talk to a Liberal (If You Must)": Never take advice from your political enemies.

Turn on any cable news show right now, and you will see Democratic pundits attacking Romney, calling him a "flip-flopper," and heaping praise on McCain and Huckleberry -- almost as if they were reading some sort of "talking points."[snip]

Liberals claim to be enraged at Romney for being a "flip-flopper." I've looked and looked, and the only issue I can find that Romney has "flipped" on is abortion. When running for office in Massachusetts -- or, for short, "the Soviet Union" -- Romney said that Massachusetts was a pro-choice state and that he would not seek to change laws on abortion.

Romney's first race was against Sen. Teddy Kennedy -- whom he came closer to beating than any Republican ever had. If Romney needed to quote "The Communist Manifesto" to take out that corpulent drunk, all men of good will would owe him a debt of gratitude.

Jeff Fuller noted bias here. The latest manifestation of the virulent MSM bias was the naked hostility of that AP reporter.

Yes, the MSM is trying to count Mitt out. They think they have the ultimate vote. We shall see.

P.S. And you can argue that McCain has won independents, which shows he's most electable. That remains to be seen as well. But the fact remains that the MSM is not fully reporting the news on Republicans and Romney, they are not merely giving McCain more coverage, they are advocating for John McCain. And dissing Mitt at every turn, with few exceptions.
