Have the wheels come off the straight talk express? (http://firstread.msnbc.msn.com/archive/2008/09/13/1393986.aspx) At least one sleeping giant woke up today: the NYT finally gives Sarah Palin a thorough vetting (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/09/14/us/politics/14palin.html?_r=1&hp=&adxnnl=1&oref=slogin&pagewanted=all&adxnnlx=1221411710-0M/ePUbBXOGEggrs43qLYQ) and the results aren't pretty. The McCain campaign's aggressive - and many say dishonest - tactics in promoting Palin may have sparked the beginnings of a media backlash.

The NY Times "vetting" found out the same things that political bosses have done for decades. Anyone remember all the Friends of Bill that followed him from Little Rock to DC? And again with the SVBFT=liars theme. Unbiased journalism, yes?
