I don’t like Romney either, but basic fairness from the press should be there for everyone. This is the best observation of the press dynamic on the Republican side:

The difference between Romney and McCain is that the press hates Romney for lying to them, while McCain has figured out how to get them to lie for him.

Compare this to the fluffjob McCain gets from John King. It’s amazing that a guy who built his campaign on “straight talk” and who has flipped on so many issues doesn’t get called out on it more often.
