What's great is that McCain pulled in more viewers for his nomination acceptance speech than Obama and Palin pulled in more viewers for her speech than Biden, despite both McCain and Palin being carried on 4 fewer networks than Obama and Biden.

This only accentuates that America agrees more with the right side than the left, even though the media wants it so badly to be the other way.

Let's look at similar stories reguarding each side shall we?

Obama's pastor makes controversial statements, it's in the news for weeks. McCain's spiritual advisor makes controversial statements, in the news for maybe a day.

Really only Fox News played that for weeks. And those speeches were sold on DVD by that church; that church that he attended for 20 years intentionally put those viewpoints out there.

Rev Wright married the Obamas and baptized their kids - who is McCain's Wright? Wouldn't be Hagee, would it? Or Rod Parsley? Intentionally terrible comparison. It's dishonest to call them spiritual advisors just for endorsing him. They don't live in the same state and I don't think McCain has ever attended a mass by them.

That would be like calling Farrakhan an advisor to Obama as well as a number of dubious foreign leaders who like him.
