Secret campaign courts secret voters behind the scenes . . .
I just found out that there's apparently a ban on campaign reporting going on in New York, and the whole thing is barely mentioned in the MSM: Intriguing, but is it true? Sure enough, I found confirmation at NewsBusters, which claims there's a near-total blackout on Spencer and his campaign: The New York Times published an article on Tuesday concerning an annual Conservative Party conference held in Albany, New York, on Monday. Reporter Jennifer Medina addressed issues raised by some of that state’s Republican candidates for governor and attorney general. Yet, Medina and the Times chose not to report in its print editions statements made at this meeting by John Spencer, the likely Republican candidate to oppose Hillary Clinton (D-NY) for senator this November.On top of that, Newsmax reports that Karl Rove is helping John Spencer in his campaign. I think Rove likes being ignored, and ignoring Rove has always worked before, hasn't it? Personally, I hope they continue the non-reporting. Sounds like a good strategy. posted by Eric on 02.15.06 at 05:30 PM

Why should the MSM go out of their way to report a bunch of stale, cowardly, unmanly, totally unoriginal "everyone I don't like is a commie terrorist" drivel? There is, quite literally, no substance at all in the accusations you quote here, nothing to separate it from every other puff of Republican brown air. PS: John Blake needs to get back on his meds, but his obsession with female form and bodily functions do serve as a helpful reminder of most rabid Clintonphobes' mental and spiritual condition. (I'm surprised he didn't mention any of those old allegations about Hillary's sex life...) Raging Bee · February 16, 2006 09:15 AM Stop! Stop! You're making me feel nostalgic for "old allegations". Also I must defend the right of all commenters not to be medicated! No exceptions! Eric Scheie · February 16, 2006 10:47 AM As a Spencer supporter and donor, a lot of the lack of reporting has to do with the NY GOP as much as anything else. They have not gotten behind Spencer, and every week or so there is a rumor of another candidate. Until the GOP gets it's act together, the press stays away. Once the NY GOP accepts that Spencer is the candidate, he'll start getting more coverage. For now, he's going around New York shoring up the GOP and Conservative base. He's a great speaker: kind, thoughtful and eloquent, even if he comes off as "rough and tumble" in these few national stories. The liberals in New York underestimate Spencer, but he's already raised almost twice as much money as Howard Mills, the GOP's candidate in 2004 against Chuck Schumer. And we're still 8 months away from the election. Keep an eye out. Sean · February 17, 2006 02:06 PM |

When MzBill opens her Third Eye, and beams satori upon the hapless Pinch et.al., there is nothing left but Nothing to report.
Mde the Hill incarnates not Vishnu but the Venus of Willendorf: Virtually no head; huge, pendulous bosoms enfolding fertility-enhancing rolls of Paleolithic mammoth-fat. Not a physical incarnation, mind you, but "of the mind" (such as it is). Her shrikish leftism, lactating Statism, collectivist ovulations promising a New Birth of Stupid-- are these not of a piece with Defecrat mewlings these last seventy-five years?
Willendorf for MzBill! Now there's a rallying call for Ed Koch's "Apple Knockers." You go, girl!-- better yet, just GO.
