As wily and wary as we have come to know the media to be, the many members of Team Clinton just keep out-Foxing them (apologies for the mention of the Hellish network).
In a great many of the media's post-game analyses of the Thursday, December 6th Mitt Romney religion speech, including that of the Associated Press, we are treated to the negative reactions thereto of one Costas Panagopoulos, who is rightly (if only partially) identified as "a political science professor at Fordham University".
..................................................................................................................
Go read the rest. I have also listed below a list of Dr Panagopoulos' history. Unfortunately, besides switching sides, the good Doctor's expertise appears to be in the classroom, boardroom and the newsroom, but not where it matters, in the voter's minds:
Dr. Costas Panagopoulos was a candidate for the Massachusetts State Legislature in 1992.
