So ‘It’s Not a Winning Issue?’ CBS Surprised Voters Aren’t Talking About Impeachment

Tuesday’s CBS This Morning featured political correspondent Ed O’Keefe’s latest installment of his “3 Meals in...” series which took him to southern California for meals with a wide spectrum of voters in Bakersfield, Bell, and Newport Beach.

At the end of an enjoyable and informative segment, O’Keefe conceded to the surprise of the CTM crew that impeachment only come up “unless you ask,” leading co-host Anthony Mason to suggest that, for Democrats, impeachment is “not a winning issue, it doesn’t look like.” Imagine that!

O’Keefe appeared back live in studio after his piece (which ended in Bakersfield and dinner with Republican voters) and stated that he did ask “about the impeachment saga and almost to a person, Republicans, independents, and Democrats told us they're not sure where it's headed, but were more interested in other issues that impact their everyday lives.”

So they’re telling us that the topic the liberal media (especially the cable networks) are most obsessed with doesn’t jell with what voters want? Neato!

So going forward, perhaps the liberal media (and especially CNN) could be more like the CBS crew was in being cognizant of what voters actually care about.
