Actually they’re treating the press like a pack of hyenas. Which they are.

It sounds like Campbell’s daddy liked her sister best.

Campbell’s Father, Jim, was a former DEM State Senator from LA, that did a couple years in Federal Prison for Fraud

CNN PULLED their “pool” camera yesterday from the U.N. events Palin was attending because they couldn’t stand to show her meeting with world leaders.

Campbell Brown jumped the shark.

Before this is all over, Campbell Brown will be suspended from her job. Yeah, I know. Your first impulse is to say that CNN will keep her on till after the election but I’m saying she’s going to be tossed under the bus so CNN can temporarily take the ‘high road’.

I cannot wait until they unleash Gov. Palin.

It seems that there is a two-pronged approach at work; first, run against the media insuring that any criticism of Palin is seen as media bias (that strategy is working), and second, hold back until the debate when she levels Joe Biden.

Talk about shock and awe....

Have they ever have called a man a wilted flower? If not then this is a sexist comment.

How stupid does she think people are? Trying to disguise the MSM whining about lack of Palin access (for general bashing and gotcha purposes, no doubt) by calling it sexist?? Huh?

She’s been a little BUSY, you witch, meeting real people who vote. And oh yeah, the world leaders Obama and Biden are blowing off.

Bears repeating...

An interesting dynamic may be developing with Gov Palin. She is drawing incredibly large crowds and developing a following independent of the MSM. They are going around the MSM like no other candidate I can recall. They don't need the media as much as the media needs them. Access to these candidates means ratings. NBC, CNN and ABC have already ensured a more limited access to Palin and McCain. I'll be interested to see if the these and other outlets chose profits over partisanship and agree to reasonable and balanced sitdowns with both sides.

Bottom line...
Act like an a$$ you get to talk to the hand.

Isn’t this “sexist”? Would they say that Obama was treating Joe Biden as a wilted flower?
