JANUARY 8, 2004 – It has become so obvious
that not only are the most major news sources reporting it now, but
even FOX News, about a month after we did, ran an article today with
the title, “Dean Losing Ground, Clark Gaining.”
On December 5, when we reported Clark was the lone
number 2, the rest of the press was completely ignoring the General
and anointing Dean. On December 16, when we reported that Dean
was on the way down, no one in the press even dreamt of running such
a headline.
And in each case about 3 weeks to a month later
our storyline became the accepted reality. So how is it that
we report so far ahead of everyone else what is really happening in
the elections, and so accurately?
Well, we will fill you in a bit down the road on
our techniques, but for now we will say being a completely
independent, unbiased, non-partisan news source allows us to simply
report what is. Other mainstream media outlets worry about
offending this or that group or appearing biased. They also
don’t like to appear to contradict themselves, i.e. if they said
Dean was the front-runner, changing the storyline will make it seem
like they were dumb. And then, of course, they have their
biases that make them want to push this candidate or
that.
We at The Moderate Independent only care about the
truth. We report what is, and don’t care what storyline is out
there currently. We have no bias and don’t care to push
anyone. We just report things as they are, and, as you see, we
end up with the truth while others are lost in jumbled, outdated
nonsense.
In addition, we have completely different
reporting techniques, and this has been the second major key to why
we know what is really happening with the elections. In the
near future we will fill you more in on our unique
methods.
For now, simply know that we are the single most
accurate news source you can turn to for election coverage,
reporting the real storyline of who is rising and who is fading
weeks and weeks before anyone else, and with amazing
accuracy.
So, where is the race for the Democratic primary
at now?
What had been a pleasant surprise for Dean, a
battle for first place with favored Gephardt, has now become a do or
die situation.
Let us be clear: If Dean loses Iowa, Dean is
done.
This is because Wesley Clark very possibly will
not only finish second in New Hampshire, but will win. His
momentum is expected, and will continue to spread nationwide.
He is the right man with the right campaign.
Dean and the other Democrats’ attempts to
challenge whether he is a “real Democrat” are already backfiring, as
Dean gained his following seeming above petty politics and saying he
wanted to expand the reach of his candidacy to all Americans.
Now, he is sounding like the typical party hack, and nothing turns
Americans off – especially independents, like the many in New
Hampshire – than someone who puts party ahead of person.
Most people won’t care if Clark used to be a
Republican, especially once they listen to his positions,
personality, spiritual beliefs, and values and realize he fits as
well in the Democratic Party as anyone. And all the while Dean
and the others are making themselves seem divisive, overly partisan
and, worst of all for Dean who built his image as an outsider,
stalwart political insiders; typical party hacks.
Which only reinforces Clark’s image as the
independent outsider who will be there for all Americans and the
only one with a chance to end the divisiveness brought on by the
Bush/Limbaughians and now perpetuated by Dean and
company.
If Dean falters at all in Iowa, his growingly
tenuous position in New Hampshire will self-destruct, and Clark will
win there.
In reality – and only we will make this call at
this point – Clark is likely to win New Hampshire no matter what
happens in Iowa. He has risen from 8% to 18% in less than a
month, while Dean has fallen from 45% to 35% and Kerry has moved off
toward single digits. As more people get to know Clark, the
women who have been slower to sign onto his campaign will come in
droves, joining the men over 45 who are his main support at this
point. Clark’s charm and charisma will seal this deal with
America’s women, something no other candidate except Kerry has at
his disposal.
Dean may possibly hold on to win in Iowa, but that
is becoming less and less likely.
The most likely scenario at this point is Gephardt
winning Iowa, Clark winning New Hampshire, and then Clark sweeping
at least four of the states in the February 3rd round of
primaries. And from there, it is all done but the
confetti. Clark will be the Democratic nominee, with Dean
showing a respectable second place finish.
No, no one else will even report that Clark will
win New Hampshire anytime soon, never mind that the nomination –
barring some drastic change, which is not out of the question but
very unlikely – will be his. But you know our track
record. We are accurate, we are weeks and weeks ahead of the
rest, and we are dubbing Clark the frontrunner in New Hampshire and
for the nomination. And if you care for history, remember, as Gallup
reported this week, "only 4 out of the 10 elections (Adlai Stevenson
in 1952, John F. Kennedy in 1960, Walter Mondale in 1984, and Al
Gore in 2000) did the front-runner in late December/early January
win the Democratic Party's nomination. In all other instances,
someone else came from behind as the primary season unfolded."
But you don’t have to listen to us – you can just
wait a month and then watch everyone copy our headline.
Or, you can keep tuned in here and get the actual
news as it happens. You might want to tell a friend or two who
cares to know the inside scoop on the upcoming elections about
us. |
