huffingtonpost.com — For four months John McCain had a clear field while Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton were at each other's throats. Given the opportunity, the Arizona Senator failed to define the debate in favorable terms, spending much of the valuable primary months defending himself on charges that his campaign staff was top heavy with lobbyists.

Well, beyond algorithms, part of the way this whole social media thing works is that you comment on stuff and then maybe people read those comments and either agree or disagree with them and then a sort of consensus is reached and maybe submitters take notice and either go "yeah, they're right, maybe I shouldn't submit EVERY SINGLE blog on huff-po" or "Hey f**k that B3000 guy and his anti-huff cronies, I'm gonna post twice as many hp articles now".

First of all, John McCain does not represent the right wing. However he is marginally better than Obama. If nothing else he is not going to impose a windfall fall profit tax on the oil companies so the price of gas can go up to $5 a gallon.

ANWR is a frozen wasteland and they are only drilling in a very small area. I live in Oklahoma, we have oil wells everywhere. There is plenty of wildlife all over Oklahoma. Drilling does not destroy anything.Pull your heads out of your asses.

The difference, once again, is who they are blaming. Rev. Wright is blaming America and Americans, Paul is not.And MWeather, stop slithering away from what you wrote. I criticized their message because it was complete bulls**t. Their thinking is incredibly polar and one sided, and doesn't even come to logical conclusions.
