Wendy Davis gains nothing from engaging Bristol Palin on the subject of responsible motherhood

Wendy Davis needs to remember one important thing: She is running for governor of Texas, and for now, her focus needs to be on the Democratic primary. Period. Which means she doesn’t have to answer to Rush Limbaugh or any other GOP commentator on the national stage. She is not vying for Rush’s vote, nor is she going to win over the kinds of Texas voters who listen regularly to Rush Limbaugh. So who cares what he thinks?

Doubly so for Bristol Palin. The daughter of embarrassingly disastrous GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin has zero political insights that are worth anyone’s time. None. Her only claim to fame is that she emerged pregnant and unmarried just as her mom was chosen as John McCain’s running mate. Bristol got her own reality show, which also was a disaster. She was on Dancing with the Stars.

But because Bristol blogged last week about Wendy Davis, drawing comparisons between their incomparable experiences with single motherhood, Bristol has managed to draw Wendy Davis onto today’s front page of The New York Times. (Bristol’s blog item came up in a video interview, and Davis responded to the interviewer’s question, thereby giving Bristol undeserved traction.) Once again, the nation is talking about Davis’s imprecise personal history. And yet, nobody seems to have anything new or insightful to say. It’s all the same rehash....

Wow. You must really be some type of an asshat to actually print the above.
But since there is no longer any such thing as journalism I guess maybe it is okay..........
