Back At Ya Senator
The indispensable John Amato at Crooks and Liars has the video:
JOHN MCCAIN: “Now we’ve got the cables. We’ve got talk radio. We’ve got the bloggers. I hate the bloggers. We’ve got all kinds of sources of information.”
Shocking that the new titular leader of the Republican Party doesn't just find bloggers annoying or challenging, but actually detests the most dynamic and truly democratic forum mankind has ever devised.
Shocking.
Not really.
I bet he uses The Google too.
You know...Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Jay Rockefeller and Dianne Feinstein would probably say something similar in private conversation. So would Joe Klein, David Broder, Chris Mathews and Brian Williams. In fact, the entire political and media elite class probably dislike "the most dynamic and truly democratic forum mankind has ever devised". What does that tell you?
