435. Of course
The media has one goal, money. They get money from controversy.

I fully expect the media to provide the most dodgy clip loops on any candidate. Wright being a prime example, what has it been now, a month? Bosnia died down much faster, not because of the implications, but because it wasn't very TV-friendly. Not much video to loop there.

I absolutely trust the media to pull out the worst, most gruesome crap on any candidate. Still, do me a favor. Close your eyes and immagine Obama saying those obliteration and nuclear war statements. That's right, you can't. It's like trying to immagine Mr. T in a skirt, your mind just fails at piecing it together.

The reality remains, anyone who can say what she said is not a civilised person. Period. You can't pin this on the media, however much you try. There's no conspiracy here. She showed up for the prom in combat fatigues and no matter what angle you take the picture from, she looks like a dangerous and unhinged looney.
