They will back the liberal they think can win.

Frankly, Edwards isn't it. The man is basically Kerry II. The media's liberal bias has no real philosophy or principles behind it, so the positions of the candidates haven't got a lot to do with it. It's about who they think should have the power.

Right now, the media is kind of messed up. Hillary was supposed to be the "strong horse" this year, so they aren't quite sure which way to turn. Some seem to have already jumped over to Obama (seen the cover of Newsweek?)

If the polls shift, so will the media. I guarantee you that when the nominations are nailed down, whoever is the Democratic candidate will become a living god to the press for the rest of 2008.

One caveat: if there is enough blood in the water, the press will go for it no matter who it is, like sharks eating the guts out of other sharks in a feeding frenzy. It would take a LOT of blood for them to go after the chosen Democratic candidate in 2008, but it could happen.
