The Post Runs A Stake Through The Heart Of Kerry's Cambodian Fable

Joshua Muravchik writes an article that may prove mortal to John Kerry's presidential aspirations in today's Washington Post.

Not sure if I'd go that far; remember, it's only an opinion column.

This part of his analysis rings interesting to me:

This Washington Post opinion piece marks a signal from the mainstream media that they have turned the corner on this issue, thanks in no small part, I'm sure, to Kerry's decision to go nuclear against the Swiftvets. Expect coverage in the news sections to follow and the Kerry collapse to continue in the days ahead.

I think "collapse," goes way too far, but it should be interesting to see if the rest of the media (and the WaPo news section) follows suit.

The so-called "news" division of the Post will never say a significant word against Kerry if Dana Milbank has anything to say about it.

Dana Milbank is such a shill. I wonder if he's intellectually dissonant enough to think he's a straight newsie, or if he smiles in the morning about his work for the Democratic Party ...
