Boxer getting the benefit of press bias in her favor

Imagine if Sarah Palin promised reporters she’d take questions, then ran out from the event through the side door to avoid the questioning? Now imagine if Sharron Angle or Christine O’Donnell did it. The same shunned press would call them out for it and say they were fake or even avoiding accountability. Palin, of course, was accused of being entirely unqualified in part to avoiding high pressure press exposure, a charge Ginger Gibson is also leveling against O’Donnell.

Well, Babs Boxer has joined the club. I’m not expecting a rash of stories calling her an unqualified fake, seeking to avoid accountability for her 28 failed years in DC, though.

GayPatriot says it all, really:

Do hope the media give us a bit more coverage of Mrs. Boxer’s attempts to avoid the media. After all, shouldn’t they be castigating her for ignoring them? I mean, if she had an (R) after her name, they’d be wondering what she’s trying to hide.

Help Carly Fiorina who, if elected, will be open with the citizens she seeks to represent.

Boxer is desperate, so desperate she wants others to break the law to help her. So desperate that Barack Obama came out here twice to raise money for her. It’s time for the final push to beat her anyway.

    Boxer hasn’t had much, if any, negative press that I’m aware of during the campaign. In fact, on the day Carly Fiorina’s hospital stay was reported, NBC news used that opportunity to play a clip of one of Boxer’s negative ads as part of the report. NBC couldn’t have been any more obvious with their biased reporting.

    Even with the media bias, Fiorina is in a dead heat. It will take a strong ground game on Tuesday to win, but I believe Fiorina can pull out the victory.

    The enthusiasm today was great. I haven’t seen Republicians this interested and focused in years. I’m hoping the internals of Meg’s and Carly’s camp reflect the same level of excitement that was apparent today in our district.
