Hillary and Fox News---Engaged or Just Seeing Each Other?

Drudgereport signals that Hillary Clinton and Rupert Murdoch may have made one of those strategic alliances Murdoch is famous for---especially the long-shot bet on Tony Blair back when Murdoch was a dyed-in-the-wool Conservative [he still is conservative, but no longer wears wool].

This may be an indication that the hapless, ham-handed handling of the Iraq War by the GWB team, allied to the traditional tilt of the MSM to the left, has convinced Murdoch that the dozen years since the Contract with America may have made the Republicans ripe for minority status. And Rupert like the Godfather does not regard these realignments as personal, just business.

So HRC's hands-across-the-water to the Great Right Wing Conspiracy may engender more than just favorable news coverage for her campaign. Like the Fox TV broadcast network, Fox Cable might move into the front of the news provider pack as the MSM eases off on the cultural hostility the left harbors toward conservative news orgs.

Next question: when is the NYT going to ease off on the editorials embedded in its news copy?

Another question: when is Nancy Pelosi going to stop sounding like Karl Rove on steroids speeding on crystal meth?

Slate's take on Nancy forgets to mention her colossal genius on display the previous time she piped up the band---the great John Murtha hyperendorsement followed 15 minutes later by Steny Hoyer's statement that Nancy "speaks for herself" when it comes to Democratic Party leadership issues.

Can't wait for paragons of integrity in the Dem house lineup like Maxine Waters, Patrick Kennedy, Cynthia McKinney and John Conyers to begin investigation on the Bush WMD. And don't forget [like the MSM obviously has] NOLA Rep Jefferson and WV Rep Mollohan!
