The Enquirer is owned by a friend of the Clintons. He bought the tabloid so that he could run hit pieces on Hillary's opponents while keeping Hill and Bill out.

OTOH, what I've seen from People Magazine was very fair, so far.

Sarah Palin will give her speech at the RNC tomorrow. It will be very heavily watched, and it's likely that she will be extremely impressive to anyone who isn't a hardcore lefty.

McCain was tortured in the Hanoi Hilton for 6 years, so I think he can take 60 days of this crap. He's a really feisty campaigner, but he's been more or less unopposed for 20 years in Arizona so you don't see it so much.

Sarah Palin is also tough as nails, so I don't see her backing away from a fight either.

Meanwhile, the left has deranged itself that if they're just a little more shrill and over-the-top they can get McCain to dump Palin or they can get Palin to drop out. It isn't going to happen.

Plus, all this is REALLY sucking the oxygen out of the Obama campaign. Obama gave "the speech of the century" last week and it seems like 50 million years ago.

I dont really care or get concerned about stuff running in the tabloids. They live for scandal, it’s their bread and butter.

I think most people who read them are reading them to be titilated, and they know they’re getting the exaggerated version.

Also, I think a big part of the success of tabloids is that they take the piss out of celebrities, printing pictures of them without make-up and airing all the dirty laundry.

So ... dont sweat the Tabs.

That might just be the only silver lining in this dark cloud. However, Barry took the opportunity to act 'noble' while fully aware that his minions are digging up every possible speck of dirt.

Ultimately it may simply come down to the old political adage that there is no such thing as "bad" publicity.
