    What self-serving claptrap! What arrogance and presumption! No, Mr. Robinson, that is NOT the “new national pasttime” – except for members of the complicit corporate media like yourself! A more honest statement would have been “The new MEDIA pasttime is gaming the electability factor.”

    What a crock!

    Peace. (Maybe…)
