Palin in Greensboro

Now that Gov. Sarah Palin is coming to Greensboro, maybe she will grant us the same face time she gave Charlie, Sean and Katie. (Some say the current media strategy ain't workin'. You know how I feel about it.)

May be moot. Past fundraisers at the DeJoys' have been private affairs, although it's hard to imagine the party bringing the vice presidential candidate in without some sort of public campaigning.

Anyway, I'm taking questions to ask her if we get the opportunity.

Ask her why she would even think about talking to a liberal newspaper? My advice to her stay away from any news source that going to crucify you regardless! Adding to that I see no reason for a conservative to run a ad in liberal newspaper!

Hey Robinson, you liberal idiot, here is why she would be crazy to talk to your left wing rag. You couldn't even report honestly on the "troopergate" charade. You people are a joke. You refused to report the truth about Edwards, but you've no problem with reporting half truths abour Palin and her "abuse of power."

Look at this Pew Poll. You do not represent the majority of us. You're not even close!

A new poll indicates Americans think the media have been tougher on Republican candidates John McCain and Sarah Palin than their Democratic rivals.

A Pew Research poll says 38 percent of those surveyed believe journalists have been too harsh with Palin. Twenty-three percent say the media have been too tough on McCain.

In contrast, just seven percent think Barack Obama has been roughed up and only five percent believe that about Joe Biden.

Palin also gets the short end of the stick when it comes to fairness. Only 38 percent believe she has gotten a fair shake. Sixty-six percent say the media have been fair to Biden. Obama and McCain both came in at 60 percent.
