This Caught My Eye
Headline:
The Sarah Palin Phenomenon Is Doomed.
Text:
The primary reason why the Palin bubble will burst is that the media will decide that they are bored with her. They’ll need to move to shine a light on a fresh issue or individual.
Of all the stupid hypotheses, this one is right up there. Like her or hate her, Sarah Palin’s popularity is not with the media. It is with the conservative base who is energized by her selection.
So why would the media think she is doomed because they are going to get bored? If anything, it should be the opposite when they get bored. Remove the negative press and I see her improving her popularity. My prediction: the press isn’t going to get bored with her because she is a perceived threat. They are going to get increasingly nasty to try to destroy her.
Those in the media really are out of touch with the real world. They mistakenly think that all of America reflects their views, which if America did we would be in term number two of President Gore.
