why does CNN assign Tucker Carleson to cover the Dean campaign?

[pasadenaboy]

First Candy Crawley and now tucker. Who next? Rush and Bill ORielly?

I just heard tucker say the reason that Dean lost was because smart democrats wouldn't vote for him.

That's our objective media. What a prick, and what pricks CNN are for having a right wing commenator in a job that should be an objective reporter.

1. because Tucker is Dean's biggest fan

they also have begala there, its the crossfire pairs in action not a conspiracy

2. He is?

I thought Crawley was officially covering his campaign? Didn't Tucker call the race for Dean?

He's an asshole anyway, why pay attention?

4. It's disgusting how they have the rethug pundits covering real politics

and thinking it will be anything close to balanced.
