The reason I thought of Sam Donaldson is because his memory points up the astonishing disparity between the way Hillary (and Obama) have been covered by the MSM vs. the way they covered Reagan.

Sam Donaldson was a constant gadfly for Reagan, needling and harassing him every time he came into public view, which was at least a couple of times a week.

Reagan didn't try to dodge him. Usually, he answered his questions, if only by shrugging or chuckling.

Where is Hillary's Sam Donaldson?

She doesn't have a Sam Donaldson, of course.

There may be a Sam Donaldson type figure out there who could harass Hillary the same way he did Reagan, but that person will never get the chance. Any reporter who says or does or reports anything Hillary doesn't like gets kicked off the Hillary beat, or fired.

That was the point of my question about "does anyone remember Sam Donaldson." My meaning was a bit opaque on its face, I admit.

No, it’s a great question! I think we all understand that the MSM is in the tank for Hillary, so there will be no “Sam Donaldson” to bedevil her with inconvenient questions. We know that Rush Limbaugh has come closest to that role. Bill, after the infamous in-flight call-in to the (Missouri?) radio station, finally figured out he’s better off not even mentioning him.

The media is too busy trying to elect Hillary to be bothered with challenging ANYTHING SHE SAYS.

Disgusting.
