Sullivan Shocks Matthews With Analysis Of Palin's Route To Victory

 From the other Sheppard: Noel Sheppard at NewsBusters


Apart from Sullivan's odd seeming obsession with the details behind the birth of Palin's youngest child which bordered on "Trig Trutherism" those reading his broader comments on Palin have seen he has been one of the few who have not dismissed her chances-both for the nomination and the presidency.


This is not out of any overt love for Sarah but "from fear for America"-however his strange mix of rationality and weirdness does not detract from the insightful analysis he presents of how she might actually do in a campaign.


Chris Matthews is dumbfounded by this,to him, unexpected clarity (assisted even more oddly by Joe Klein of all people) and at one points calls Sullivan out for disrupting the anti-Palin narrative Matthews expected "Are you walking her into the campaign he says."


The enemy of my enemy is still my enemy but in this case he hits on the truth insome points.
