Hillary's Liberal Media Defenders Got the Word From Hillary HQ, I Guess
CNN:
MS/NBC:
Well, I guess Jeff Zelazny and Chuck Todd just got a phone call, huh?
MSNBC recently did a focus group about Hillary, and this very special lady's lovely flexibility was not the first attribute of hers that sprung to mind.
During a New Hampshire focus group of Democrats televised on MSNBC this morning, "Shannon" didn’t want to say what she really thinks of Hillary Clinton.
The exchange with moderator Mark Halperin began with Shannon saying Hillary’s "scorned" tone can be "off-putting."
"Tell me what it's like, what are you seeing," Halperin pressed.
After sighing, Shannon replied, "You know, when she's -- I don't want to use the word," laughing. Then she whispered "bitchy" to Halperin.
...
A male voter said, "I like Hillary, I think she's a strong candidate. But she has that --,” pointing to Shannon, "that condescending and I can see that causing gridlock."
Shannon jumped back in mimicking Clinton, "I'm a woman, I deserve it."
When Halperin asked the focus group to raise their hand if they thought "that" (her, um, let's say "consistency") could hurt her, everyone raised her hand.

Update: Jeff Zeleny was the guy who asked Obama, upon his inauguration in 2009, what he found "enchanted him the most" about the experience.
