It Is No Longer About Any SINGLE Scandal, the Narrative Has Moved On

[WeDidIt]

We are in full oput media swarm now. The story isn't about single scandals, it's about a growing list of scandals and controversies. A list that seems to grow longer as the hours pass.

Intrade is taking bets on her nomination being withdrawn.

The coup de grace was the media narrative broaching the subject of her withdrawal. The seeds were sewn on Larry King last night by Ed Schultz. It's taken hold as John Roberts asked a McCain spokesperson whether withdrawal was a possibility.

Folks, we are into a major mdeia feeding frenzy. It's no longer about a "bold pick by a maverick", it's now about a "clueless move by an inept campaign.

1. HuffPo has withdrawal front and center; Drudge pouting.

Something must be right in the world.

and how she was a maverick who hunted & fished, and whattagal she was..and the handicapped baby...ooooh what a saint she is...and look how handome her husband is... he;s a snowmobiler..and did we mention she was a beauty queen..

but now we are finally hearing what a bad choice she was..

7. Alaskans love her because she's not Frank Murkowski

and they're getting their oil checks.

8. that was just the media repeating the only info it had on her at the time

we have moved ahead since then and people have had time to do some digging.
