Even though the two interviews were clearly different -one intended to lob some softballs for one candidate, and the other hoping to embarrass and discredit the VP candidate from the other ticket -people aren't stupid. Even though Democrats and the liberal media believe they are and will believe whatever they tell them to believe.

People can see which person was dealt the tougher questions -AND the motivation for the stark difference in questions. The majority of people in this country already believed that the media was intent on helping Obama win anyway, even before the Palin pick -and this only confirms that belief. For good reason. They are.

But if they do the same thing in the VP debate, people will be outraged about it which can only result in ANOTHER backlash -and not one that will benefit Obama. Maybe Obama's camp and the media haven't figured this out yet -but McCain LOVES this blatantly disparate treatment of Palin compared to Obama who wants an even higher office. At least McCain knows that people really aren't as stupid as the left believes. Too bad that is a founding premise of liberalism though -because I don't expect the liberal media to change a thing here. And McCain is certainly hoping they don't either.
