Romney won by 8, Santorum wins by 34 – Media misses by a mile

The national media’s whole goal these days is to be the first to predict a winner.  The Iowa GOP told us on the night of the Iowa caucuses that Mitt Romney received 8 more votes than Rick Santorum.  Eight vote difference and the entire media was a willing partner of promoting the myth that Romney won Iowa.

No one thought that there would be a potential recount? Even without the recount, 8 votes in a primary should not a winner make. Remember when we used to get delegate updates?  Has anyone seen one of those lately?

When the media talks about a surge Romney received out of Iowa, they say it as if the media is not the conduit.  Sensational journalism is the name of the political game and don’t let anyone tell you different.  If you don’t believe me watch ABC’s interview with Marianne Gingrich.
