An anxious time

Now that the DNC and RNC are both over, some commentators are saying that the fight is about to get very ugly. I suppose it's a little too late to expect a good clean fight. Personally, I'm looking forward (with something approaching a remotely horrified fascination) to the debates. It will be interesting to see how those play out, and may be a deciding factor in some people's minds. The horrified fascination rests in the possibility that a media that has openly admitted its bias to one of the candidates may continue to report falsehoods like the one that has been reported in the blogosphere and in other places that when Bush announced at a recent rally (yesterday) that Clinton was in the hospital, and said he's in our thoughts and prayers, that thousands booed, and Bush did nothing to stop them. While the AP revised and then removed the parts about booing, other news providers have run with it. (annoying advertisement needed to read Salon's full three paragraph story). Some people were there, and have posted audio of the comments and following applause. (Hat tip to powerline).
