WaPo article on Palin

Michael Leahy wrote an article about the current state of Palin's career in the WaPo today. He does the expected negative spin, and attempts to use this article as a tool to further destroy Palin's reputation in MSM.

I hate to beat the already dead horse, but this continues to show how scared MSM is of her. This article just reeks of desperation to muddy her name and her image. It's almost comical now. For instance, at the end of the article, Leahy notes that Palin reads from a teleprompter. He's implying that despite her dynamic personality, intelligence and great speaking abilities, she's just like every other politician using teleprompter. The more cynical side of me even thinks that he's implying that she's stupid for using one. However, not only is that implication not true, but hello, take a look at our President. Without a teleprompter he's completely lost and says "uh" every other word like someone who needs to take an intro public speaking class.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, the more MSM does this, the more we defend her and like her. Their articles and reports aren't reflective of the public's opinion of her. They're creating a fantasy land of hate for Palin, just like they create a fantasy land where everyone believes Obama is the Messiah. It backfires on them every time.
