Real Alabama Democrats can't win for the Journalists

I am sick and damn tired of supposedly unbiased, white (yes I'm playing a race FACT), male, (yes I'm playing the gender FACTjournalist getting to decide who/what/when/where a candidate is credible or not, or, when someone/something is racist/racism, or not?  Who elected them God?  I mean really?

Al.com's Joey Kennedy wrote a column entitled  Democrats need a credible candidate for governor, even it's it's a lost cause   in which he proclaims  Alabama is a solidly republican state and Bentley is very popular.  I wonder why? Snark

 Who is Bentley very popular with....the GOP?  Who gets to decide who is credible?

Dr. Jess Brown?
Jess Brown, a political science professor at Athens State University, said the absence of a Democratic candidate for governor at this point is “indicative of the weakness of the Democratic Party.” In an email, Brown said the Democrats have lost so many races in Alabama “that it is a party without an effective message or messengers.”

Uh, no Dr. Jess Brown, the party has messengers, they just aren't allowed to express their opinions in the mainstream press like you.   How about an opinion from a political science professor at Alabama A&M University, Tuskegee University, Alabama State University, University of Alabama in Birmingham, Miles College

Let's just stop having elections and let Kennedy and others decide who the winners are. The reason Alabama is solidly republican  is  because journalist know they can count on the uniformed and misinformed to hate democrats more than they love their county, city, state, country, or themselves for that matter. 

I sure do miss the good old days when  the media used their powers for good, and informed the public of what we needed to know to make informed decisions, and let the voters decide who/what is credible or not.

It's the media, I won't say stupid, because we aren't stupid, It's the media who caters to stupid.

No wonder more and more people are turning to the blogosphere for unfiltered information.
