Liberal Bias of the DRC Editorial Board

I just wanted to point out the the Denton Wretched-Chronicle would not print my letter pointing out how the voters were being misled in the last election, but they will print this load of mental diarrhea from Bill Trantham:
"Primary postmortem
With the close of primary election season here, a few observations are in order.
First, this is Obama country for Democrats. What energy and excitement his candidacy ignited here. It was amazing.
On the Republican side, in what is probably one of the last gasps of the Isaacks political ma­chine, a former assistant district attorney narrowly won over Com­missioner Cynthia White.
As I forecast when he an­nounced, it was a dirty campaign featuring at least two hit pieces from the Coleman campaign. He faces Phyllis Wolper, a Democrat, in the fall. And, we will probably see more hit pieces about her at that time.
I wondered if Republicans would endorse and reward another candidate who came out against the Isaacks machine point-blank.
Apparently, the Republicans found Steve Burgess’ filing against Judge Isaacks, before she gave up, to be worthy of their votes and support.
The other candidates who were afraid to file before Judge Isaacks gave up failed to garner the support level of Steve Burgess.
Finally, I noticed that Karen Guerra, Democratic candidate for the 16th District Court, got more votes than four Republican candidates for district judge combined.
It is going to be an interesting fall, politically.
William Trantham,
Denton"
OBSERVATIONS:
Do you wonder why local defense attorneys would campaign so hard against the incumbent DA? I would imagine that they get tired of having to work hard to defend their clients against tough and solid prosecution. A sensible voter would support the DA candidate that the defense bar fears the most.
This is just another illustration of the left wing slant of the DRC editorial board.
Do you need more? How about the tendency of the paper to put bad news about the Iraq war on the front page, but good news (i.e. the success of the surge or the fact that American casualties are very low or the fact that we are winning over there) gets buried in the back pages.
I will be more diligent about citing specifics to support my argument in the future.
