As BarbinMD pointed out on the front page yesterday, Phyllis Schlafly is less than pleased with McCain's choice. From ABC:
ABC News' Teddy Davis Reports: Conservative icon Phyllis Schlafly is taking the McCain campaign to task for notifying her at the last-minute that Sarah Palin will be a no-show on Tuesday when the Republican National Coalition for Life holds an event honoring the Alaska governor.
"I think this is clearly somebody in the McCain campaign who doesn't understand where the votes are coming from," Schlafly told ABC News. "They only told me this at 10 o'clock last night and it was a call from somebody down-the-line in the McCain campaign."
But what does MSNBC take from this same news event? A quote from near the end of the article stating that Palin has energized the party. As quoted by the current yapping suit Norah O'Donnell on MSNBC just now:
"I cannot believe what she has done to energize the Republican Party and the people who were, at best, lukewarm about McCain," said Schlafly.
There is no bad news for the Republicans if the media chooses to ignore it. Everything is good for McCain.
Oh, and we've always been at war with East Asia.
