And John McCain and his people stood by and let her be vilified.

not that it wasn’t completely freakin’ obvious from the outset, but it’s nice to have this smoking gun

We all suspected it. But to see these collaborative email between supposedly “independent” and “unbiased” propagandists is amazing. It’s amazing they’ve gotten away with it for so long. Bunch of hyprocritical pigs.

Great point...she has shown she's not afraid to call these scum out and this will help.

If this were any other business, competitors plotting with each other on how to best deceive the customer, would be a serious violation of anti-trust law which would land them all in prison.

The media just can’t give it up - trying to bring Sarah down has been one BIG FAILURE! Therefore, she lives in their head 24/7.

GO unconventional SARAH! It’s your time and their time is over!

“like the internet equivalent of guys getting together at the bar, which they’ve always done...”

The big difference is that these aren’t reporters “shooting the breeze” or “venting” these are planning sessions about strategies and tactics as “the unofficial campaign” for Obama.

This is not discussing both candidates and their pros and cons. This is blatant “undisclosed” advocacy. Their reports and articles should have come with the disclaimer...paid for by the Obama campaign.

Journolist = “the unofficial campaign”

Also Klein is a big name. He’s the one who wrote Primary Colors about Bill Clinton.

“.....the co-ordinated attack on Sarah started on day one.....

......and continues to this day. Petty, childish rumor-monging that, sadly, many Americans believed.”

It started WAY BEFORE Gov. Palin emerged on the national scene thanks to the wildlife and envior whackos who were trashing her policy on aerial wolf hunts in Alaska and her hunting. The rest of the lame stream media just added to it.

But the majority of the country will never know this. It’s not like the alphabets or newspapers are going to report about themselves.

It’s beginning to look more like the internet equivalent of guys getting together at the bar, which they’ve always done, I’m sure.

Ya, right. This is far beyond a couple of guys at a bar shooting the BS about Republican candidates. This is a coordinated effort by "self-proclaimed non-partisan" reporters on a national scale to create propaganda that helps Obama and hurts McCain/Palin. WE KNOW the press is incredibly biased and one-sided and these blog posts prove it.

Looks to have all the makings of a Fifth Column.

Are all of these "journalist" from Nevada? I was under the impression that this was the only state where prostitution was legal!

Whores, all of them... and TOTUS is the pimp.

I’m afraid this story will go nowhere. Who will report it for the average dolt American?

The leftist news media? Right.

They are barely annoyed at this outing. That is how safe and secure they feel in their outright propagandizing inormation in a free society.

It seems to me that a lawsuit could be brought regarding violations of Election Laws by the “unofficial campaign”. All donations must be reported by the candidate. Obama/Biden received contributions-in-kind from the unofficial campaign and surely never reported them. In discovery all these left-wing “newsies” would be called to testify. The fit would hit the shan.

Stein asked hypothetically. “A: Well, she has much experience as the Democratic nominee.”

One second into Day One of Sarah's mayoral tenure at Wasilla exceeded 0bama's level of executive experience.

And we pay for that gross error by the American electorate with each passing day.

I agree. They set out to destroy a good, decent, genuine, patriot, mom and governor, and they did a very ugly job of it. That Sarah prevailed, speaks volumes about her.

Go Sarah 2012! God bless and protect her and her precious family.

I’m old enough to remember what they did to Goldwater, and there was no Journolist then. Watergate the same.
