Maureen Down has been banned from McCain's plane. As they strive to cover the Palin/Biden debate, other reporters feel like they are treading on thin ice. In interviews this week it was clear the guy who would have us believe he is "fighting for us" wants us kept in the dark,but considering Palin is running for VP and therefore only a heartbeat away from snowshoeing over to take charge of Command Central down on Pennsylvania Ave, it would seem reporters should be given plenty of freedom to insure the woman is who she seems to be. After all his lying and distorions, John McCain's word is simply not good enough for most Americans.
It will be interesting to see the debate coverage, but if this Huffington Post article is correct, it will be up to the bloggers then to speak out honestly about both candidates performance.
