Mika Brzezinski - Blinded By the Light

Thank goodness I caught a little of Mika Brzezinski this morning. Otherwise,  I would have gone through the whole day believing that Governor Scott Walker won the recall election in Wisconsin last night. Mika kindly straightened me out on that by explaining that Obama was the real winner last night and it looked terrible for poor Mitt in Wisconsin this November. The exit polls clearly proved that.

Hey Mika, are those the same exit polls that projected a "too close to call" election last night? Same ones? Just checking. Same ones that reported 119% voter turnout in Milwaukee? Yes those. Blind faith can be a beautiful thing.

It's a little unfair to Mika to presume her Obama bias is a voluntary action, because it is quite obvious that she has a case of the vapors when it comes to everything Obama. She can't help herself. The vapors do that.

Some might even say she was Blinded by the Light!

Sing it Manfred

Here is another take on the media reading what they want to into flawed exit polls.

Palin Effect: Fischer Wins Nebraska Primary

Grizzly attacks on humans are rare, usually devastating and sadly, often critical. Most bear attacks are provoked when a sow grizzly senses a threat to her cubs. A Mama Grizzly attack on a political race is much less violent, often equally critical, and always more fun to watch.

Such an attack occurred several weeks ago in Nebraska. The results stunned the old guard Republicans last night. Deb Fischer won the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate against two well-respected and successful state officials. Did you hear the roars?

Deb Fischer won because the real Mama Grizzly, Sarah Palin, endorsed and supported her in the Republican primary. It was late in the race when Palin jumped in to enthusiastically back this very dark horse. It only took two weeks. Amazing. Very few people of influence would put their reputations on the line and take this level of risk to support a relatively unknown candidate running in third place late in a race. But Sarah did. With Mama Grizzly determination. Animal instinct.

The Republican establishment backed her opponents Attorney General Jon Bruning and State Treasurer Don Stenberg, the Tea  Party Candidate. Both are good men, solid conservatives with excellent reputations. They just didn't have the "it" factor to excite the electorate. It takes vision to recognize weakness as well as strength in candidates. Sarah has that vision.

In the fall, Deb Fischer will face Greenwich Village resident, true American hero and former U.S. Senator, Democrat Bob Kerrey. Kerrey was dragged out of New York into this race when Democrat Senator Ben Nelson decided to retire and no viable Democrat candidate could not be found to replace him.

Sarah Palin is a force to be reckoned with. When she decides to become involved, she makes a difference. Keep it up Sarah, we need you.
