The problem is that the electorate sort of expects Democrats to be amoral & corrupt. It's a dog-bites-man story to the Media.
No, that's a MSM rationalization. And if you have doubts about that, think of the last time a reporter asked a dem if in fact he was corrupt and thought it was OK to be corrupt. Dem would be "oh so offended" if asked.
The MSM believes any self-serving excuse that will give them a pass for their outrageous bias...
Don't buy their bullsh-t, Tallguy. It's a sham.
Have you ever seen a horrible parent who loves one child so much more than the others? Ever listen to their lame excuses? Really, it's disgusting. Almost as disgusting as the MSM...
