PM me who...

6. Don't know who it was -- it was FAST. I didn't even see the offending post. nt

4. Truly sad...

I wonder why reporters keep picking that scab though? I think it's unnecessary...

[AspenRose]

5. I know

That was hard to watch. Part of me wants to kick that reporter's ass for even bringing it up. :mad:

Is nothing sacred anymore?

7. BUT -- when she was talking about it, I swear it seemed she was

speaking with an almost awe about Joe and a dismissive feel about Palin.

And, to be cold and strategic, I think that would touch a lot of viewers -- see the DEPTH of our VP compared to Sarah.

8. That's the other part of me that's conflicted

It's public knowledge, it's in his book, so it's inevitable that in this election cycle people will be talking about it.

The reporter looked young to me, somewhat impressionable (and impressed) with what she saw and experienced.

I guess what worries me are media outlets not treating this topic with the respect it deserves.

9. Lindsey Graham actually said something dismissive of it not too long ago.

PS -- As a whole, the media outlets have treated this with utmost respect.
