You're right, the press barely reported the fact that a member of Davis' own party basically called him corrupt (and when they did always mentioned that Florez was only doing it to advance his own political future). And yes, a quote from a has-been like Ford wouldn't have even registered a blip on their radar if this had been a Dem problem. And of course the liberal media LOVES this story, but I have seen too many of the Simon-is-too-far-to-the-right quotes from Republicans to expect the press to control themselves.

And I also agree that Simon has done nothing but reach out (probably too much for some conservatives) to libs in the party and doesn't deserve this treatment.

We have to hope Bill Simon will stick by his base that elected him and not turn his campaign over to Gerry Parsky and his allies.
