    Clearly none of us trust the media's bias............infact more prefer going to the rally's and deciding for ourselves what is said by the McCain/Palin ticket. The media has been so biased and critical that there is no longer confidence in their reporting. Didn't Palin indicate in her initial speech that she was not buddying up with the media like Obama/Biden do........................

    Anyone can see that Obama and Biden has a track record of talking talking talking......................smooching.............sitting as a Senator has achieved what???? outside of big paychecks.....

    It's simple. Palin can't stand up to Scrutiny. So they're doing everything they can to shield her from the Media and America at large. Put her in front of nice safe Republican audiences where she can toss off a few soundbites and smile and wave, and she's safe. Put her in front of reporters, who will grill her, and she's going to gaffe away.

    This follows the stated Rove/Gingrich policy of speaking over the press.

    How long before the press finally acknowledges their role is being undermined by the current GOP campaign tactics and just stop asking 'please'?

    BRAVO networks and Press Corps
    Don't give Governor Palin a second more coverage until she EARNS IT, by answering reporters questions. Ms. Palin isn't running to be McCain's spokesmodel, she wants to be the VP of the United States.

    sarah...if the Press smells fear, they will be eating barracuda sushi for lunch.

    LOL, OMG, where ever did they find this woman, no wait, that's right, she's from the state where you can see Russia from her house! We'll be safe now with her in charge! Hey I can see a convenience store across the street from my house that is run by two Arabs, maybe I can be Secretary of Defense! where do I apply? Palin, do yourself a favor, GO HOME, your family needs you, before you further embarrass yourself.
