Good stuff from Chuck Todd, who said on MSNBC this morning that his media colleagues are far too willing to hype Sarah Palin's every Facebook and Twitter update as huge news:

Just because Chuck Todd’s wife is a Democratic operative doesn’t mean he’s biased.
You’ve got to read some of the “Reader’s Comments’ by the Wapo readership. It scares me to death that there are so many ignorant, elitist morons in this country. Kinda like NY Times readers. I’m really appalled.
(CNN) Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin has taken to Twitter to slam President Obama’s economic policies as “backasswards.”
After Obama was in Las Vegas late last week to attend two events for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, the Las Vegas Review Journal published a tough editorial Sunday that faulted Obama’s policies on taxes and other economic issues as the White House and Capitol Hill try to turn around the struggling economy.
“President Obama once again left behind a sinking feeling that neither he nor Sen. Reid have a clue how to pull this country out of its current dire economic straits,” the paper’s editorial said.
In a series of tweets posted Sunday, Palin echoed the editorial’s sentiments. “What happens in Vegas shouldn’t stay in Vegas;pls circulate this,” the former GOP vice presidential hopeful and Tea Party favorite tweeted before dropping a link to the editorial.
The delusion is strong.
uhh...she’s not “playing” them...they ARE chumps.
Ain’t that the truth!
I’M sure Todd didn’t know anything about John Edward’s affair either...
In 2002, Denny Todd returned to politics by accepting a position with U.S. Senator John Edwards (NC) leadership PAC, New American Optimists. She spent a year as a Senior Political Aide in Iowa where she was sent to lay the ground work for Senator Edwards 2004 run for the Democratic nomination for President. In early 2002, Denny Todd was the first 2004 Presidential staffer on the ground in Iowa.
Because Greg Sargent is a leftist tool means he’s a “useful idiot.”

Chuck Todd’s wife - Kristian Denny Todd past relationships:
1998 Fritz Hollings Senate campaign - press secretary
2003 Bob Graham presidential campaign - national spokesperson
2006 James H. Webb Senate campaign - senior communications strategist
Atlantic Media Group - public relations director
Gary A. Condit - aide
Patty Murray - press secretary
Has any republican ever beaten the media at their own game? Turned their attacks into support to such an extent? It is pretty amazing, historic.
But I’d bet if they stopped writing about her, her popularity would increase, given their reporting is largely very negative. They have the hubris to believe that they still determine the news cycle, that their reporting makes her important, but they don’t, it’s the people. And people would find other ways to keep up to date with all things Palin.
They are just exasperated they can’t finish her off, as they nearly did in 2008.
