Hey, she goes out, gets on stage stumping for her mother, then she should answer questions. Otherwise, it’s just Mom and Dad pimping her out.
That was exactly Shuster’s response/explanation for his comment in his initial emails, and I think it has merit.
In fact, Shuster even gave Chels a break in that he focused, not on the fact that she was just out there campaigning, but that she was also making closed-door calls to superdelegates.
IOW, what she did in public at least could be scrutinized even if she didn’t submit to questions. But getting down and dirty by essentially lobbying superdelegates, in a race as tight as this one, led him to conclude that such a person should not be totally off-limits to the media.
Can’t blame him for his reaction.
If Shuster saw Keith Olberman’s apology on his behalf-—which I unfortunately stumbled upon while channel surfing-—he’ll now have a clue why the rest of us despise the smarmy Keith so much.
Oh what evil Webb’s we leave, when first we practice to conceive.
