NYT Denigrating Republican Candidates


For John, BLUFI think Governor Walker has a lot to recommend him to the Country.  Nothing to see here; just move along.



Yesterday Law Professor, Blogger and Madison, Wisconsin, resident Ann Althouse commented on a New York Times article on Republican prospective candidates for President in 2016. "The NYT blithely dispenses with Scott Walker as a GOP presidential candidate."  "Blithely", as in "showing a casual and cheerful indifference considered to be callous or improper".

From the Blog Post:

The column is "Taking Account of Republican Presidential Contenders," by Albert R. Hunt, which begins with the assertion that this year "hasn’t been so kind to... Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin." That's backed up only with this:
Mr. Walker of Wisconsin, 46, a success in a generally Democratic state, was considered a first-tier contender. But a mini-scandal and an expected tight re-election race this autumn have dashed his prospects.
Governor Christie, Governor Perry, and now Governor Walker.  Is this a case of The New York Times colluding with the Democrat Party or are they just clueless about those living more than a two hour drive from their offices in New York City?
