Matthews: 'Media Will Try To Destroy Her' But Palin Can Win GOP Nod By Mark Finkelstein (Bio | Archive) Wed, 07/07/2010 - 07:37 ET

An unexpected prediction, and an even more surprising admission from Chris Matthews this morning . . .

Appearing on Morning Joe, the Hardball host predicted that Sarah Palin would seek the Republican presidential nomination, and painted a path to victory for her. In a moment of candor, Matthews admitted that "the media will try to destroy her, of course."

Matthews made his comments in the course of a pre-taped Mojo Midterm Exam segment that aired on today's Morning Joe.

Matthews saw a scenario in which evangelicals would sweep Sarah to victory in the Iowa GOP primary. She would lose New Hampshire, but put in a respectable-enough showing to move on to South Carolina, where her game-changing endorsement of Nikki Haley would pay dividends. The fight would then move to Michigan, where Matthews says Palin "beats the hell" out of Mitt Romney, whom he curiously described as "not a politician."

Then came Chris' flight of frankness.

CHRIS MATTHEWS: [Palin] maybe gets an early knockout. That's how I see her winning. An early knockout's the way she can win. The media will try to destroy her of course, but if she goes early, wins early, I think she can win it before anyone can stop her. Note Matthews' blase "of course" appended to his observation that the MSM will try to destroy Palin. He takes it as a given that everyone knows the liberal media have it out for her.

Question: does Matthews envision himself participating in the media effort to "destroy" Palin?

I don't think Palin will enter the primaries, but we'll see.

Obama's first all-by-his-lonesome budget, btw, calls for a $1.17 trillion deficit.

In her latest Facebook posting (if by "her," you mean, "whichever pathetic, now-suicidal personal assistant got the short straw and had to crib shit from Keep America Safe or the Heritage Foundation to scrawl down as Palin's own"), Palin lays out a foreign policy doctrine that can best be described as "Hey, world, blow us."

In what was a truly disgusting bit of reporting today in Politico, news puppy Andy Barr, a shameless apologist for Palin these past 16 months, confirmed the rumor that Stapleton, Palin's longtime "spokesperson" and political assassin, was departing her $96,000-a-year position as a consultant to SarahPAC, though Barr never managed to set any of the significant facts in place.

Instead, Barr spun it exactly as Stapleton wanted it woven -- as a move "to spend more time with her husband and 2-year-old daughter, Isabella."

Perhaps you'd also like to buy some land from young Andy in Florida.

Barr's most recent suck-up to Stapleton came earlier this month when Stapleton used Barr to distance Palin from her criticism of Rush Limbaugh for his use of the word "retard." It was a barefaced bit of duplicity and perfectly reflective of the Palin-Stapleton spin machine.
