SAME OLD CRAP

Some in the MSM are still using the same narratives on the Dems that they've been using for years. Somerby has great analyses of this phenomenon and I came across another instance in the AP article by Ron Fournier. The arrogance meme first surfaced with the terrible treatment of Al Gore and it's still alive and kicking.

Arrogance is a common vice in presidential politics. A person must be more than a little self-important to wake up one day and say, "I belong in the Oval Office."

But there's a line smart politicians don't cross _ somewhere between "I'm qualified to be president" and "I'm born to be president." Wherever it lies, Barack Obama better watch his step.

He's bordering on arrogance.
