Yeah, that obviously was in reference to the press's willingness to continue on this story, not in general. The Obama camp is notoriously poor at getting a handle on the wheels of media coverage. The Clinton's were good at it. Obama, not so much. The media is a sucker for tabloid "death panel" type stories, and this tax issue plays into that kind of narrative. It's easy to keep them on this because of that. Mainstream media is a joke, though not in the way you want to believe.

I know you think you're awesome because you're trolling and all, but I can assure you that your real political opinions are also ridiculous.
