I get "snippy" about folks that fail to see blatant press bias  
(Brian) and those that actually revel in it (richardsan).

My objections are that the press are holding Palin to a higher  
standard than either Obama or Biden, or any previous candidate for VP  
for that matter. Both you and Brian are being disingenuous about my  
position on the matter. I'm for a neutral press that treats all  
candidates the same. Treat them all with kid gloves or ask them all  
tough questions.

Accepting such press bias is a two-edged sword. We may know far more  
about Palin by this November than we do about Obama. As John Zogby  
noted, that could result in a landslide -- for McCain.

Is that what you want? Can you answer that without changing the  
subject or conflating issues?
