ANN ALTHOUSE TO FRANK RICH:

Do you really still insist they are people who feel the whole world is against them? You’ve just mapped out why they — and all of us — really should be alarmed. You have a massively powerful, ambitious President, unchecked by an opposition party, boosted and promoted by journalists who’ve forgotten what their role is. Now, go back to your imagination exercise and do it again.

I agree with the commenter who says they should fire Rich and replace him with Althouse. Won’t happen — they’re still stuck in this mode: “Forgive the bad journalism. We need to make it bad so you’ll buy it. Not you brick-throwing deadenders. But somebody. Anybody.” Frank Rich is perfect for that.
