Hillary Clinton

Wow.  Talk about explosive.  "E-mails and memos—published here for the first time—reveal the backstabbing and conflicting strategies that produced an epic meltdown." (emphasis added.)  Remember me calling Hillary "Old $chool Wa$hington Politic$?"  The backstabbing was bad enough.  The temper tantrums were worse.

And then, this little gem:  "But as a journalistic exercise, the “campaign obit” is inherently flawed, reflecting the viewpoints of those closest to the press rather than empirical truth.

How did things look on the inside, as they unraveled?" (emphasis added.)

((Folks, we're not out of the first few paragraphs yet.)) 

That gem...reflecting the viewpoints of those closest to the press...  That says quite a bit, don't you think?  Remember me writing about the press and their viewpoints?  How they whitewash somethings and bring others out?

How about this, from Morning Joe:  "You have an editor who was actually 'outing' his own people.  The Seattle Times newsroom broke into applause when Karl Rove resigned.  And of course that's bad." 

"And I gotta say, my first night here at MSNBC was the President's State of the Union Address in 2003.  And I was shocked because there were actually people in the newsroom that were booing the President, basically from the beginning to the end."

This is our "unbiased" media?  That was from 16-AUG-2007 and you can find it on (where else?) YouTube.

I'll say it again ... unbiased media?  Really?  How about Chris Matthews?

11-JUN-2006:  "You know, over the weekend, Republican pollsters said that this is the worst political environment for Republicans since Watergate.  Yet it looks like there's some movement going on, so where do you think we stand?  (as he starts grinning)  Why are you smiling?" - female reporter asking Mr Matthews.

"Well, because I think it's gonna be a wipeout."  - Chris Matthews.

There is a reason I went off on this tangent.  The media wants BHO elected President.  Surely you've seen the accusations of the pro-Obama slant in the media?  Surely you've seen some of their slanted reporting?

And here are two more clear instances of anti-Republican feeling at the newsroom. 

No media bias?  And HRC's advisors reflected the feelings of those closest to the press rather than the truth.

Politics and media.  Strange bedfellows indeed.
