This is not the way it’s supposed to work. Local newspeople are supposed to be in awe of presidential candidates and are supposed to toss softballs. National newspeople are supposed to be the fearsome interlocutors. Check out John McCain’s lame responses to fairly aggressive questions from a newsman on WCSH in Portland, Maine. Note, by the way, McCain’s use of what has become Standard Operating Procedure for Republicans. He filibusters every question, going on and on repeating himself (lying, for the most part) in order to burn up time. Via Americablog:
