“I spoke to a savvy, politically connected friend yesterday who told me that MSM journalists were already packing into planes, trains, and automobiles to hie themselves thither to Alaska in order to prospect for the gold of D.O.P.–dirt on Palin. Well, good luck to ‘em. What the Clinton’s called (and, even more, what they practiced) “the politics of personal destruction” is never pretty. But I suspect that, like most gold prospectors of yore, they will come up empty handed in this case. The only thing I’ve heard is the story about her getting her unstable brother-in-law fired: not much there for the fourth estate, especially since Palin has been so cooperative with the inquiry that they haven’t even had to issue a subpoena.”

“The same scrutiny should be directed towards Obama”

That is the problem with the last few democrat picks. They pick the first shiny object they think can win, some unknown package. Then are miffed when the people have to dig up their ouwn information on the candidate and don’t like what they find. Too bad there is not an organization or group of professionals out there that are willing to find that information in a non biased way and present it to the american people so they can make an informed decision. It seems the msm trys its best to cover for its new shiny object as long as it can but will ferociously dig information on it’s percieved enemies. Must keep the sheeple in the dark about their pick.
