Bully Pulpit

Roosevelt often used the word "bully" as an adjective meaning superb/wonderful. The Bully Pulpit features news, reasoned discourse, opinion and some humor.

Obama blames Fox News, e-mail for likely loss in Kentucky

By Ryan Alessi

LEXINGTON, Ky. — Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama, facing a likely defeat in next Tuesday's primary election, won't travel to Kentucky before the voting, but said he hopes to have much more time to win over Kentucky voters before the November general election.

He also blamed Fox News for disseminating "rumors" about him and said that that and e-mails filled with misinformation that have been "systematically" dispersed have hurt him in Kentucky.

Obama is disintegrating at an increasing rate. Do you still think he'll be the nominee, Andy? The delegate count going into the convention is meaningless. Ironically enough, the Democrats could care less about democracy when it comes to selecting their nominee.
