The Palin baby story is this year's "Rathergate". |
|
Remember all the time we wasted discussing and analyzing that? Remember how it turned out?
I won't tell people what I think they can and can't post about. I just want to warn DUers to tread with an enormous amount of caution.
We've been here before. Wasting our time forensically analyzing fonts and bidding on typewriters on ebay. It was a big, stupid distraction and Rove very successfully changed the story from Bush's AWOL to Rather's shoddy journalism.
This time the better story is Palin's lack of qualifications and extremist positions. The Republicans would love to turn Palin into a victim of loonie left-wing bloggers the way they turned Bush into a victim of the "liberal media".
