O’Reilly: sympathetic media
DAMN THE PRESS…
—–
But a new Quinnipiac poll is bad news for Republicans. On the question of do you support or oppose Congress shutting down the government over ObamaCare, just 22 percent support; 72 percent oppose. Also the people were asked who they’d vote for if congressional elections were held today instead of November 2014; 34 percent said they vote Republican; 43 percent said Democrat. Now some pundits believe that number reflects how the ObamaCare government shutdown mess is being reported.
MARK HALPERIN, POLITICAL ANALYST: The White House does not have much incentive because they think — they think those trends are going to go in their direction by the end of the week or early next week at the latest because, again, the press is largely sympathetic to their arguments on this that it’s the House Republicans’ fault.
