PAT CADDELL - FAUX NEWS DEM POLLSTER

Pat Caddell was a pollster for Jimmy Carter and has been used by FAUX News to attack Democrats in the past. He was on Brian and The Judge yesterday and played along with the wingnut startegy of attacking MoveOn for its ad and also made serious accusations against Hillary Clinton and her campaign. He used the words "Mafia, thugs, criminals" to describe the type of people who work for Hillary and went on to claim that the NY Times was afraid to cover the Hsu story because it had been threatened by Hillary and/or her operatives.

This last claim fits in with the wingnuts constant harping about the "biased liberal media" and I decided to do a simple Lexis search to see if Caddell was correct about the Times not covering the Hsu story. This is what I found for the past month searching for just "Hsu":
