Reporting & mud-throwing
Linda Chavez complains that the media have been acting like a "Democratic fifth column" and that Obama has been given an easy ride. I agree he wasn't pushed hard in the early stages of the campaign. But now? I'm not so sure. Besides, is it really true that reporters descended on Alaska in pursuit of scandal about the Palin pregnancy? Weren't they there to get some basic information about a candidate who may not have been vetted properly? One last thing: Chavez - who implies there's some story to be had about Obama's past drug use - studiedly fails to mention the contemptible whispering campaign about his alleged Muslim connections. Did she just forget?
