A fascinating read for those on the right who pay attention to WaPo writers and Politico.com contributors who are out-of-touch with conservatives in this country.

No surprise there,  but the language used to write this story confirms everything that we know about the MSM.

Politico.com writers John Harris and Jim Van de Hei start their piece What Hillary Might Say  in a fairly even-handed way.

It's not until page 2, that they get really nasty.

Van de Hei and Harris posit that John Kerry and Al Gore lost control of their campaign ‘message’  during their respective presidential bids because the ‘right-wing’ freak show’ viewed them as elitist, snobby, and unpatriotic.

Both men lost control of their public images to the right-wing freak show — that network of operatives and commentators working mostly outside of the mainstream media — and ultimately lost their elections as many voters came to see them as elitist, out-of-touch, phony, and even unpatriotic.
Obama is a much less familiar figure than Kerry or Gore, with a life story that is far more exotic, who is coming out of a political milieu in Chicago politics that is far more liberal.
The freak show has already signaled its early lines of attack on Obama. Polls show a significant percentage of Americans believe — falsely — that he is a Muslim. Voter interviews reveal widespread unease with minor and seemingly irrelevant questions like why he does not favor American flag pins on his lapel. Nor have we heard the last about Wright and his fulminations..
