The Echo Chamber at Red State

TW: I have mentioned how amusing the bloggers at RedState.Com can be in a pathetic kind of way. They have reacted to the Obama victory, or Palin loss as they see it, with their usual insight and focus not on the country but themselves. Their "leper" list will probably serve as a good indicator of who the Republicans should listen to in their efforts to re-suscitate the party. The Red State approach speaks to the challenges the Republicans will have in finding a centerground from which to build.

From Red State:
"RedState is pleased to announce it is engaging in a special project: Operation Leper.

We're tracking down all the people from the McCain campaign now whispering smears against Governor Palin to Carl Cameron and others. Michelle Malkin We intend to constantly remind the base about these people, monitor who they are working for, and, when 2012 rolls around, see which candidates hire them. Naturally then, you'll see us go to war against those candidates.

It is our expressed intention to make these few people political lepers.

They'll just have to be stuck at CBS with Katie's failed ratings.

Initial list:
Nicolle Wallace
Steve Schmidt
Mark McKinnon"
