For the last few weeks the HRC campaign has taken to saying the media has been too soft on the Obama campaign as a whole and the candidate in particular. I am not one to usually cite Joe Scarborough for keen political thought and insight by virtue of the fact that he and I are on opposite ends of the spectrum. However, he brought up an excellent point this morning...
How would Obama and his campaign been treated in the media if they had lost 10 straight contests?
HRC has been granted a huge number of second and third chances in this campaign that no other candidate would have been granted. Rudy got crucified for his Florida strategy that failed miserably.
Given the current state of things it will be interesting to see if the media lets Clinton push the bar further back should she stumble or not get the sweep she needs and perhaps even more interesting will be the question of if the media gives Obama a chance to recover if she does carry the day.
