You really make it seem so easy with your presentation however I to find this topic to be actually one thing which I feel I might never understand. It sort of feels too complex and very huge for me. I am looking forward for your next submit, I will try to get the hang of it!
Why should Romney give access to reporters who are in the tank for Obama anyway?
The media treated Obama like a candidate and not an incumbent. It wasn't until the friggin' debates that Obama was actually held responsible for his first 4 years.
This election was a referendum on Romney, not a referendum on Obama as it should have been. And the media allowed that scenario to happen.
