Mark Haperin: The Obama coalitions are dead, including the …. media?
Yup. The same Mark Halperin of Time Magazine and MSNBC fame. The coalitions are dead, dead, dead. Mark outlines each one in this very short clip, but even Joe Scarborough can’t resist poking fun at the last coalition that died last night.
As you listen, you will nod your head in agreement as he points out where Obama’s support has evaporated, but it’s the last one that is the laugher. I don’t even think he is aware of what he said. I don’t. But Scarborough, on Morning Joe, was, and has a little fun.

Why yes, I do remember the President saying “You all voted for me.” Didn’t he? Hmmm? Didn’t he? Let me check. Why yes, yes he did.

From May of last year. Poor Mark.

Is this the same Mark Halperin that wrote this memo to the ABC news staff during the 2004 presidential election?
If anyone knows about bias in the media, it is Halperin. He is in the thick of it.
Whether Halperin is right or not we will see, but he is certainly one of the symptoms, not a cure. As for Barry, to find that the Academy really does not love you has to be tough – so the tough get going in style. To paraphrase the first real progressive: "Speak falsely and journey by big ship".
Dims – if that is an example of Halperin's writing skills and ability to explain clearly and concisely, it speaks volumes for the state of journalism today. This is apart from the convolutedly biased content.
They don't practice real journalism, so why should they be expected to be able to spell and use correct grammar?
Fools and tools.
