After the election, Sarah Palin’s debate prep advisors ran to the NYT and called her an idiot.
This is why I call this episode with Carson Palinization.
He presumably has this ‘advisor’ on the payroll to advise and educate him on foreign affairs...just like Palin had debate prep advisors on her payroll.
But Palin and Carson are both political outsiders. That means they can’t even buy loyalty in DC...and their own paid advisors are more loyal to the NYT than to them.
That’s why I made the comparison. I won’t vote for Carson, but this isn’t about him. Its about a political ruling class that has set up a machine that stabs political outsiders in the back, seemingly every time.
“After the election, Sarah Palin’s debate prep advisors ran to the NYT and called her an idiot.”
Yeah, except those weren’t Sarah’s advisors, they were *McCain’s*. Big difference.
This is Carson’s own man. Carson is head of the campaign and has total control. If his own people are so out of line, then it’s another sign he’s unfit for the office.
