it seems to hope to persuade journalists to back off in their scrutiny of Palin.

I'ms sure they have no issue with legitiamte scrutiny. But scurrilous and obviously hare-brained allegations?

Kurtz says the press has a "traditional gatekeeper role". While I find this assertion arrogant, if it is a fact, isn't part of that role sifting the wheat from the chaff? If so, they have failed miserably.

Jesus said ... “... if they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; ...”John 15:20c

They (attackers) at all levels are afraid of her. Sarah's strength of character. Malevolence is behind these absolutely outrageous, egregious, malicious, hateful attacks on her and her family. It is most unfair for the children. I'm confident that Sarah will stand up under it. She has a pioneering spirit, and resolve.

The best thing we can do is cover her and her family, and John and family with prayers for for them to be protected

” ...with the whole armor of God, that they may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against the rulers of the darkness of this, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
13. Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand. Ephesians 6:11-13

Father, You are holy, You are worthy, , we praise You and thank You for this day. We come before You asking for mercy and forgiveness, Your loving kindness is known. We pray Your words in Ephesians above, over Sarah and her family, John and his family. We ask protection, and victory for them during this election process. We ask that Your will be done on earth, we know there is nothing to hard for You. Thank you, that You hear us ... that You hear us always. In the name of Jesus the sweetest name we know. Thank you, Father, Thank you. Amen.

Father, You are holy and we love you. Praise Your name in all the universe, “the heavens show Your glory....” Psalms 19:1

Please read Ephesians 6:14-18 too.

Palin is the hope of winning this election and the democrats know it. The are out for blood and worse.

2 possible reasons:

1. they are inept (as usual)

2. Machiavellian: they count on the opponents to overreact and overdue it to the degree that the general public will be disgusted by the media and Obama camp, and not the Palin/McCain.

I bet in #1.

It’s every bit as bad as the McCain campaign thinks. Now the liberal media is engaged in a campaign to tell us who our picks should be for office. Simultaneously, they want to ensure McCain’s defeat. These people are utterly biased, utterly unprincipled, and it’s all-out war on that large segment of the media now.

Schmidt said mainstream journalists are giving "closer scrutiny" to McCain's little-known running mate than to Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama.

The Mud Scum Media have given closer scrutiny to a 4 month old baby than they have to Barack Obama!

Note to MSM: Congratulations! Now that you've determined that Trig Palin is ineligible to run for office (he's too young), you can use those newly discovered investigative journalist skills to delve into Barack's background.

"We are being bombarded by e-mails and phone calls from journalists asking when she will be dropping out of the race," Schmidt said......That's thick, pungent stench of fear Mr. Schmidt!

Exactly. Wishful thinking from the MSM.

That is one of the better ideas I’ve heard. Why don’t you forward it on to the McCain-Palin campaign?

Put the P Ditty youtube rap up on the big screen tonight for everyone to see. That should garner votes. He epitomises the Obama vote.
