7. Not A Good Way To Make Friends And Influence People...

You'd think the Rmoney handlers would learn from history...don't piss off the media. Bring 'em donuts...take 'em to a BBQ...make 'em wanna have a beer with you. Honk 'em off and you end up fighting two wars...just ask Mooselini Palin. I'm betting Team Mittens thinks they can buy the corporate media off but even the stenographers do have limits and egos. Willard crossed the line.

The stupid thing is by making a big stink about the Post article it keeps it alive in the news cycle and invites others to follow suit. I hate to be gravedancing early here, but from this vantage point, the Rmoney campaign is already unraveling under the weight of its own superficiality.
