Tonight, Palin's debut showed neither trepidation nor vacillation in her resolve to synergize with McCain and do what is planned for them--to function as reformers without fear nor favor from the pollsters, media, and influentials that can interfere with the intention of changing the scope and landscape of American politics and to bring &amp;quot;change.&amp;quot; &amp;nbsp;Oh yeah, and Chris Matthews: I was glad to see that there was no Hilary Clinton in that speech!&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I just saw you on MSNBC. &amp;nbsp;Thank you for defending the job of the media. &amp;nbsp;I'm aware that much MSM nowadays is biased, etc. &amp;nbsp;HOWEVER, journalists with integrity still have a job to do, and I'm glad to see that you are defending your right to do it. &amp;nbsp;I'm repelled by the campaigns repeated attempts to manipulate popular opininion through &amp;quot;journalistic&amp;quot; venues and by criticizing reputable journalists for doing their job. &amp;nbsp;Bravo.&lt;/p&gt;

I was glad that you, as your Time colleague Joe Klein. are saying to your media colleagues to stand up to the Republican attacks (as is their wont), and in particular in the charge of sexist coverage and unfair vetting of Palin. Yet I feel you and some of your colleagues are partially responsible for the environment in which they could make these spurious charges. I lost all respect for you and many in the MSM for being in the bag for Obama and being overly critical of Hillary. I will vote for Obama but I feel McCain would not have picked Palin if Obama had made Hillary his running mate. Remember if you were perceived as objective reporters you would have more sympathy about the Republican attacks.&lt;/p&gt;
