Quote of the Day (6/14/11): Vandehei -- A Modern-Day Pauline Kael?

I live in a rather special world. I only know one person who voted for Nixon. Where they are I don't know. They're outside my ken.
— New Yorker writer Pauline Kael, Dec. 28, 1972

(In the '72 presidential election Nixon won every state except Massachusetts and the District of Columbia.)

If you talk to any single reporter at any media organization that we're aware of, I don't think that anyone thinks [Sarah Palin] can be president or should be president. 
— Jim Vandehei of Politico, on "Morning Joe," June 14, 2011

The lib media: Out of touch then. Out of touch now.

I'm not endorsing Sarah Palin for president, mind you. I'm just sayin' the lib media's out of touch.
