Seem a bit unfair. He seemed to be a hard working, successful guy, that got addicted due to an injury.

The only commonality is Politico’s equal disdain for Al Sharpton’s people and Sarah Palin’s people which is to say that they disdain all people who are not members of that little psuedo-intellectual elite in a far-distant capitol that think they can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves.

[Leisler]

Boorda appropriated the honors of others.

Sharpton gets the red carpet treatment from the MSM while Palin is served dirt sandwiches.
What am I missing here?

[Mr. K]

Boy they just can’t shuttup about her

they must fear her more than any other GOP

for that reason alone I would vote for her, even though I already know she has bigger ball than any of the other GOP crop of ‘candidates’

Mitt- go put on a dress- Palin will mop the floor with you in the debates and you are going to look like a fool hitting a woman

[Diogenesis]

Exactly.

Gov. Palin is bombarded by the
Obama/DNC/Soros/Romney/Rove/Krauthammer/Frum/Parker axis.

[Leisler]

Before coming to Politico, Mr. Martin worked at National Journal's The Hotline and at National Review

[silverleaf]

the good news is ....Politico is openly dissing the REVrund Al as a bloviating race pimp

[Leisler]

Sharpton gets the red carpet treatment from the MSM while Palin is served dirt sandwiches. What am I missing here?

[McGruff]

My only question is... are they deluded, or are they attempting to delude Republicans?

The tactic is to tell a lie enough times so that it becomes the truth in the weak minded. So can see it happening right on this forum sometimes. Sad.

[Leisler]

If she wins and is successful....all those will say they were always with her. They are that kind of people.

[FrankR]

I'm way down on the list here, but I'm glad to see this post...for finally the leftists have brought this to a logical conclusion.

1. By this article they are finally admitting that Al Sharpton is no more than a poverty pimp and a race monger; 2. When they get to this point to slam Palin, they are running pretty low on ammunition.

The bottom line is, this isn't going to work either...trying to compare apples and oranges never works, and taking a remark made my Palin and equating that to DECADES of race pimping my Sharpton, is silly, and desperate.

[BobP]

Does the Politico know anything at all about Sharpton? I mean seriously.

-----------------------------------------

It's an upside-down world. They not only think upside-down, they write ndsıpǝ-poʍu

This is all anyone needs to know about the good Reverend.

We don't owe America anything - America owes us.

Jonathan ‘Journolist’ Martin. A real credible report. Not.

[driftless2]

I think the thing that most irritates the Palin-bashers is her habit of defending herself after being attacked. The fact that someone like Labash would compare her to a scoundrel like Al Sharpton says more about Labash than Palin.

[muawiyah]

Oh, the anti-semitic guy ~ should have recognized that right off the bat.

Next he'll be attacking her baby.

[LibFreeUSA]

AXE TO GRIND, ANYONE???

Here is Matt Labash a real objective "conservative"...

Here is Matt Labash describing Palin in 2010...

- "annoying"
- "jingoistic"
- "shameless"
- "like a 15-year-old"

RE “If she wins and is successful....all those will say they were always with her. They are that kind of people.”

How about the alternative? Suppose she doesnt run, or she runs and loses? What will those that said she will run AND win say?

[section9]

The key takeaway here is what white liberals think of Al Sharpton, not what they think of Palin.

Best,

Chris

[Leisler]

If she doens’t run. They win.
If she runs and doesn’t win. They win.
If she runs and isn’t successful. They win.
If she runs and is successful. They were always with her, but critical.

So the pundits win 80% of the time. Not a bad gig if you can get it.
