Rational posts are rare. Most of us are guilty of having our feet stuck solid in a big pile of preconcieved notions, and a bucket stuck firmly on our head.
Just like the rest of the nation, and just like all the politicians - except the politicians sell advertising space on the inside of their buckets.

One story quoted on Fox's Red Eye says that the media has actually been nicer to Romney than Obama so far in this election cycle. Part of the reason is that Romney isn't having to defend higher gas prices and unemployment, just his dog travel methods and some miss-statements.
Plus Romney has been suffering the slings and arrows of fellow Republican candidates. No need for the press to add their barbs.
