There is an old carny expression: you can’t hype a stiff.

And that’s exactly what the Obama organization is finding out. What we have been seeing is THE AUDACITY OF HYPE – the perfect parody of his slogan. But even the rubes soon catch on, and then the game is up. That’s where they are now.

The killer is going to be the Chicago Annenberg Challenge, into which Stanley Kurtz is doing a serious probe. Obama’s staff is going bananas, trying to put the lid on it, attempting to impose limitations on freedom of speech. Why? It can’t be because of the Ayers connection -everyone knows he has been lying about that.
It has to be something connected with his only record of experience in management, You’d think he’d welcome proof of his administrative skills and accomplishments on an educational project. NO! NO! NO! Apparently not.

We don’t need to know the truth. TheGOP just needs to ask he question, aggressively: hy are you so anxious to keep this subject secret?

As you say: they are acting so frenzied and crazy that they may self-destruct.
