I would have to concede to a certain degree of saying "yes". If the context of the question is the media sways IOWA'S predictions, not MY stand on issues, that would be the case at times.
It's sad that whatever candidate gets the most positive air time usually garners the most "transparent" votes. What I mean is, I firmly believe that MOST of the population (say roughly 70%) doesn't even do their own objective research on candidates. I think they just listen to mainstream medias' garbage and take it as gospel. Or, they take the negative ads of all parties and think it's truth. In short, most Americans are blind followers...
