You know the unprecedented fishing expedition conducted by the Obama compliant media has been an epic fail when even the Politico is forced to admit this whole spectacle will probably end up helping her. How? In the video below, Andy Barr discusses the fact that the emails pretty much back up what we’ve known all along: Governor Palin was a very engaged and highly effective Governor. She was an impressive leader who paid attention to all issues, large and small. Further, the emails bolster the message in The Undefeated by corroborating the fact that she was a fearless, no-nonsense chief executive who took on Big Oil and other outside interests in order to further the interests of those for whom she worked: the citizens of Alaska. Click below to watch:
It says something when even the Politico, not exactly known for their unbiased Palin coverage, is conceding that this surreal “colonoscopy” by the cartoonish mainstream media is backfiring. And that’s exactly what it’s doing. Much to the media’s chagrin, the emails show a serious and highly effective executive who was in full control of her administration. As Tim Crawford indicated yesterday, everyone should read the emails.
The best part of this whole episode, I think, is this: The media’s decision to give this email release saturation coverage will only hurt them, and help her, as it will refocus people’s attention on Governor Palin’s actual record…and away from their carefully constructed and laughably false narrative of Governor Palin as a political lightweight. And, as an added bonus, the timing of this is perfect as all this attention can’t help but provide priceless, if indirect, publicity for the upcoming release of The Undefeated.
It’s almost as if she’s toying with them and had planned this all along. Whether she planned it or not, though, it has to frustrate the hell out of them that every time they think they have a new silver bullet to take her out, it backfires and she emerges stronger. I feel their pain (not). This will only intensify their PDS and resulting demented behavior. Pass the popcorn.
