USA Today: "Electability"

Jeff Cohen called this article to our attention.

USA Today attempts to move John Edwards out of the Iowa primary race by excluding him from their reporting about "electability."

The paper forgot to mention that Edwards outperforms both Clinton and Obama in hypothetical head-to-head contests against Republican rivals.

In fact, the only mention of Edwards at all comes in pigeon-holing him at 15 percentage point backing by voters in a USA Today/Gallup poll.

Here is FAIR's reporting on the matter.
