The media is buying into the Clintons’ most recent attacks on Obama. TPM, as usual, takes a look at the actual facts.

Byron York write in the National Review:
I went to Barack Obama’s rally here, on Sunday night, with a Republican friend who had never seen the Illinois senator in action before. Watching the crowd of more than 3,000 fill up the convention center, watching the people send up waves of energy to Obama, and watching him play off that energy in a speech that was one of the best political performances anyone has seen this year, my Republican friend said, simply, “Oh, s—t.” He recalled the scene from Jaws, in which the small seaside town’s sheriff realizes how big the shark he’s tracking truly is, and says, “We’re gonna need a bigger boat.” What my friend didn’t have to say was that he was deeply worried that Republicans just don’t have a bigger boat.
The media won’t do its job, so Jon Stewart is on the case.
After all the years of Bill Clinton’s bullshit, it’s amazing how the media drinks up everything he says without doing any real analysis or reporting. Their idea of analysis is to argue about how his statements affect the horse race, but they rarely do any real research to determine whether his allegations are true.
Now he can take a well-deserved nap.
Another traditional publication sees the light and opens up its web site.
