The Sacramento Bee deserves a rare bit of credit for running this analysis. It totally demolishes Gray Davis's smear campaign.

Some of the liberal media's articles and editorials attacking Davis this past month or two have been so devastating, you have to wonder if they haven't decided to toss him off the back of the sleigh. It seems to me that it's more than just a plot to get all the bad news out early.

I think we have reached a point where they could no longer maintain credibilty (if they ever had any) if they didn't report this stuff.

Before I read the contents of the article, I thought it would be even more smear against Simon because of the title. Many regular people will not read beyond the titles of articles in which they're not interested, so the SacBee still helps Davis somewhat.

I, too, was surprised by the "balanced and fair" reporting of the Sacramento Bee.

However, while it would be nice to think that the liberal media would dump Davis because of his obvious corruption, methinks that would be a lot of wishful thinking. The liberal media would NEVER want a pro-life conservative in office like Bill Simon. While Bill Simon is a businessman, he is also a Christian (though he doesn't "wear it on his sleeve", so to speak). He has made emphatic statements about the culture of life, against gay marriage, and for gun ownership. I think the liberal media would much rather have Davis -- corruption included.

I think the media is "trying" to be fair now when the public isn't paying attention to the election, and they'll jam Simon after Labor Day.

Go Simon!
