By John Lott
Published November 30, 2010
The media just loves to hate Sarah Palin. And, if polls are to be believed,
the constant media bombardment has hurt her standing among many independents
.
Unfortunately, over the last couple of weeks, even conservative media
pundits such as Mona Charen, Peggy Noonan, George Will, Joe Scarborough and
Matt Labash see these attacks and warn that she can’t win the presidency.
They even buy into the attacks on her judg... 阅读全帖 |
