John King and David Gergen Make Excuses for CNN Chasing Palin Around Like the Paparazzi

Know She's Not Running in 2012

CNN knows full well that Sarah Palin is not going to run for president in 2012 and that there is no way in hell she'll survive even one GOP primary debate, but that didn't stop them from chasing her around like some celebrity with her bus tour and it didn't stop both John King and David Gergen from pretending like there's a reason to take her seriously as a contender for 2012 rather than someone who's just wanting to milk every bit of media coverage she can before she proclaims that the "lame-stream" media never gave her a real shot at the nomination.

And that didn't stop King from spending the entire first half of his show plus pondering whether Griftie-McQuitter-Snow-Billy Palin is going to possibly "shake up" the GOP primary race.

Lawrence O'Donnell already summed up very nicely why Palin is not going to run. Apparently CNN is more concerned about treating her story like some ambulance chaser would a bad car crash for ratings rather than letting their viewers know they're completely wasting their time.

The Gawker summed this up much better than Gergen did with his lame attempt to treat Palin with any credibility that she doesn't deserve -- Sarah Palin’s Bus Tour Confounds Reporters:

1. They don't need to make excuses, it's good for ratings..
Teabaggers love to hear about her every day..

And, the bulk of "du'ers" love to follow her and every move her family make as well.



Kind of sad actually...go get something productive done like change the oil in your lawnmower or clean that nasty out of the bottom of your fridge :)
