Lets stipulate the obvious: Hillary Clintons reference last week to the RFK assassination was pluperfectly stupid and insensitive. It could prove to be fatal to her campaign, though I doubt that it will. I'm sure George Allen feels her pain.

Deprive the media of its audience and its sponsors of their customers.Seems to me Big Media is doing a fine job of that themselves.

“If a Republican or (so-called) conservative makes a gaffe, as they do almost daily, their misspeak is usually politely ignored.”
Bizarro World. This guy needs a straightjacket. Seriously.
If anyone really believes that, they need to be locked up to keep from harming themselves.

I am sure Dan Quayle would agree. Why he made the horrible mistake of reading the answer to a spelling test and didn't catch that they had spelled it wrong.
The media then made it one of their basic stories which had to be mentioned along with some slur at Quayle.
If Dam Quayle had said any of the things Hillary and especially Obama havee said, he would be the butt of jokes for maybe a hundred years.

Meanwhile, glaring issues potentially devastating to the Republican candidates are kept off the front pages and off the mainstream TV screens:....Right there, that paragraph, tells you all you need to know. The "writer", like Rosie o'Tard, has plagiarized it's talking points from the DU and/or the indymedia.

Where to begin?
Al Gore was relentlessly pounded for his claim to have invented the internet. He never made that claim.
He SAID, "I took the initiative in creating the Internet." IT'S ON TAPE. Whether or not he "misspoke" he clearly made that idiotic statement. It's a lie to say that "he never made that claim."
I notice that the word "sniper" never occurs in this piece, nor the word "Cambodia." Both of those (the Hillary "sniper fire" story and the Kerry "Christmas in Cambodia" story) are the most egregious inventions that they were caught at, and it tends to invalidate the author's thesis that Democratic gaffes are momentary alipa of the tongue.

You know, like the Texas Air National Guard documents proving that George W. Bush deserted. And the story that Karl Rove betrayed that covert CIA agent Valerie Plame.
Oops.

Comparing Democrat and Republican gaffes is very instructive, though.
Republican gaffes really do tend to be slips of the tongue, while Democrat gaffes tend to be wild, absurd resume enhancements.
Like Tom “I flew combat missions in Vietnam” Harkin.
And Hillary “I was named after Sir Edmund Hillary” “I landed under sniper fire” Clinton.
And Al “Erich Segal wrote Love Story about Tipper and me” “I took the initiative in creating the Internet” Gore.
And John “Being in Cambodia that Christmas was seared, SEARED into my memory” Kerry.
And Barack “My uncle liberated Auschwitz” Obama.

John McCains belated shedding of the embarrassing Hagee and Parsely endorsements will be gone from the news and forgotten within the week. In contrast, the Rev. Wright Goddam America uproar is still alive after several months. How many years did McCain associate with Hagee or Parsely? What did McCain say in defense of either of these men? Did McCain later flip flop and say that he COULD be critical of them after he said he COULDN'T be critical of them? Did he also try the line that their statements were taken out of context? Did he try saying that privately he'd already spoken with them? Did he try saying that he wasn't there "that day"?
DUmbass.

And the Clintons were hounded by the alleged Whitewater scandal throughout Bill Clintons presidency, until at long last, the Ken Starr inquisition was forced to admit that there was no there there, a finding that was essentially ignored by the mainstream media. Ask Tom DeLay how it feels to be run out of office by a witchfinder general who resigns from the case before bringing it to trial 3 years after the charges are made.

It is clear from the context that Hillary was invoking a familiar political circumstance in order to support her decision to stay in the race through June... I think it is a mistake for people to take offense. Exactly! Clintons essential point: three months is an eternity in politics. History confirms that a lot can happen before the August convention: The election used to get started far later than August of the preceding year. The DNC wants this wrapped up already.
And the good dirt is saved until October. Just ask Albert Gore Junior who's team leaked decades old news of GW Bush's DUI arrest.
If it cost him 0.52% of the national vote (which it almost surely did) then it cost him the popular vote that Gore loves to boast of.

Then there are those utterly trivial incidents, inflated to national prominence: Al Gore wearing earth tones, Yeah it is much "better" to focus on his padded crotch on the covers of magazines like Rolling Stoned instead. < /s >

Howard Deans amplified scream, Howard Dean's own party pulled the plug on his campaign.
Howard Dean was not going to win. In part because his politics were neck and neck with those Obama espouses. At least Obama picks up 96% of all black votes and some guilty liberal white voters and young voters.
Howard Dean's early "success" was the same "success" as Ron Paul had at "winning" online polls. Basements full of keyboard clickers DUping the public by DUmping on online polls.
The scream was a convenient foil for the Democrats to use to drop him early in the election cycle. In exchange for dropping out, he was handed the reins to the party.
He still sounded like a crazy wimp "Eeeeeaahhhhh". Or a braying jackass.

As the general public continues to wise-up to the fact that the corporate media are no longer reliable sources of information but rather are propaganda organs for the military-industrial-congressional-media complex, both the credibility and the audience of that media dissolves. If a significant portion of the public accelerates that dissolution, the media will face the stark dilemma: reform or perish. Reminds me of the laugh I had at an independent bookstore recently.
A customer (I assume of the liberal persuasion) was asking the clerk/owner (I assume of the liberal persuasion) if the copy of the NYet Times she was buying was complete. Why, it was so much thinner than it used to be. He was baffled too, they checked for the supplements; yep, they were all there.
The answer is that the paper is shedding pages; content AND advertisers because advertising and circulation are down down down.
Jason Blair syndrome isn't good for the subpar fishwrap.

At last, the admirable and eloquent Keith Olbermann may have overshot with his rhetoric. I'll have to go with mental patient on this one. No sane person would describe Olberman as admirable and eloquent.
