cock morris has as much as creditabilty as a o'reilly. both are sexual deviants; one like to suck toes, the other enjoy talkin dirty on the phone.
Yes. They saw her as low hanging fruit that they could quickly destroy the same way they ruined Dan Quayle and tried to ruin Clarence Thomas. From the media's perspective, it was a slam dunk. She was an evangelical(therefore stupid), just had a less than perfect baby( hello, that's why we have abortion), had an investigation going about her brother-in-law(investigation=guilt if it's a republican) and, perhaps most delicious of all, her 17 year old daughter was pregnant(don;t they have Planned Parenthood abortion clinics in Alaska?). The media tore into her, sensing an opportunity to kill the entire McCain campaign in the crib ( just to pick a metaphor) by forcing him to ditch her. For five days solid they went after this young mother and her family. Most memorable for me were the elegant limousine liberal women trotted out to cluck that a mother with young children was just being foolish and irrepsonsible to run for office. You had to be pretty dense not to see the utter hypocrisy. The game turned ugly for the media thursday night. It seems the hick from Alaska actually worked on camera as a TV anchor early in her career and knew how to handle a teleprompter, even a jerky one, and a camera. The 30 million people who tuned in out of curiosity were impressed. Very impressed. Here was a candidate who seemed normal, with values they understood. The names most often mentioned the next day were Reagan and Thatcher. McCain's Hail Mary seemed to be thrown by Doug Flutie. Rasmussen is out with a poll today showing the unqualified, intolerant, ethically challenged, bad mother and hypocrite to be more popular than her opposite number Joe Biden. More popular than McCain. More popoular than...gasp, Obama. Thanks media. Your bias and bigotry made it all possible.
