Palin's Troopergate

The McCain campaign just threw some bubbly blond surrogate on CNN to tell us that Troopergate is only of interest to the "New York media types" who are hyping it and not the people from Alaska who are familiar with Palin.

For a brief, shining moment Wolf Blitzer emerged from his corporatized coma and had the temerity to comment that it was, in fact, the Alaskan media who had been driving the Troopergate story and that they'd been doing it for quite some time.

The bubbly blond, apparently without concern for anything as tedious as ensuring consistency in her talking points, responded that it was only natural for Alaskans to be interested in a story that concerns their state.

D'oh!
