3. That's ok. Many people who'd watch CNN on a Sat. night probably already voted

6. Not a hit piece. It was a biography, they did the same thing for McCain
The included the negatives in both of theirs.

11. this is true
I've seen both of these twice. Both reveal some darker sides to each candidate. I didn't think either was a "hit" piece.

10. Which makes you wonder about their refusal...
of Obama's half hour. Guess they didn't want to interrupt the shilling they do for McCain for free. I stopped trusting CNN as a news source since the 2004 elections. Good to know I only missed out on pure manure. Cafferty is the only one I can stand.

13. Is it actually titled "Obama Revealed?" Or is that just your take on it?

15. Actually I just watched it (again), and I really liked it.
I didn't really think it was a hit piece. It showed his beliefs and dreams from day one. I was moved by it.

16. CNN, I just wish that I knew who was "calling your anti-democratic shots
and why they are doing? Who a CNN is going to profit from an Obama loss? How?
