Todd Disses Santorum--But Fails To Ding Dunn On Hedge Fund Hypocrisy
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

His show's called The Daily Rundown. And sure enough, Chuck Todd ran down Rick Santorum this morning as just another "flavor of the day" who "probably won't be the nominee." Apparently, trouncing Mitt Romney in three contests last week, and leading by a reportedly huge margin in Romney's native state of Michigan, isn't enough to impress Chuck.

But Todd totally swerved around Anita Dunn, failing to question his guest about the story of her big-money hypocrisy making today's news. As Obama's White House communications director, Dunn regularly went after hedge funds. But now as a PR consultant, as the Washington Free Beacon has reported, Dunn is taking hedge fund money for a campaign to promote the industry's image. Incredibly, nary a word about it from Todd.

Chuck Todd writes off Santorum as just another “flavor of the day” who “probably won’t be the nominee.” Ping to Today show list.

I guess all 20 viewers will not vote for Santorum now. Oh well. I like that people underestimate Santorum. Keep it up. It will be funny when all these idiots are scratching their heads watching Santorum taking the Oath in January 2013.

On reading the headline, I honestly thought that the only “Todd” whose opinion matters is Sarah’s husband!
