Never Pick a Fight With Someone Who Buys Ink by the Barrel

That is one of the oldest rules in politics: Don't pick fights with the people who cover you. You will not win. But that is exactly what the McCain/Palin Campaign has been doing: Pointing fingers at the press and complaining about the coverage and encouraging the rally audiences to boo the reporters.

The result:
Coverage of the Republican candidate has been overwhelmingly negative since the conventions ended, a study released Wednesday found.
The McCain tactic of attacking the press has worked as well as it did for the RMS Titanic to order "all engines ahead flank" in a field of icebergs.
