Ouch: NH’s Largest Newspaper Plasters Front Page With Palin Coverage, Romney Announcement Pushed To Page A3…
Then again, Mitt should be happy his 2012 announcement wasn’t run on the obituary page.
(TPM) — If Mitt Romney was looking for huge headlines from his Thursday campaign launch in New Hampshire…well, he might have reason to be a bit disappointed.
Friday’s front page of the New Hampshire Union Leader, the state’s largest newspaper, has Romney’s launch seriously overshadowed by two other events: The death of former Gov. Walter Peterson (R) — and Sarah Palin’s tour of the state. The latter was given the banner headline just above the fold, “Palin Hits The Seacoast,” plus a large photo of Palin and her daughter Piper.
By comparison, Romney’s kickoff was reduced to a mere inset photo within text of the Palin piece, and a small headline, “Romney Announces.”
The caption text: “INSIDE: Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney announces his presidential candidacy Thursday in Stratham. Story, Page A3.”

Who do we blame for this? Palin? No. She’s nuclear hot. The Left? No, because they’re a bunch of lying-in-the-tank-for-Obama-myrmidons anyway.
We blame Romney, for being dumb enough to keep up this charade that he has support in the Northeast or that he’s the biggest thing on the Right or that he has a better than average chance of winning the Presidency.
Shit why bother putting the mug of an old has-been like Romney on the front page, when you post a pic of a shit hot babe instead? Just makes sense to me.
can someone call Martin Bashir and see if that newspaper is in violation of federal law?
After I made my comment, I saw Zip pretty much summed up what I said in one sentence.
Can you imagine being the the Mittens household with Sarah in town and bashing him for Romneycare and then he gets a tiny little article about his HUGE announcement he’s running for office again.
Wait till Sarah announces she’s running, that will get more press then obama has ever had..
Heh.
Sarah is a Rock Star. Mittens is a washed up RINO…. Case closed.
This is hilarious.
PALIN 2012
Call a crash cart for Mittens, he’s down. Best thing for his loved ones to do is pull the plug.
Sarah is a ‘true’ American.
Yes, but it’s still his tuuurrrnnn.
Rush says he doesn’t pick favorites, but he sure does go on about the ‘Cuda, doesn’t he?
2012 Can’t Come Soon Enough!
She’s Reagan in a skirt.
Guess I’ll have to watch the FOX AzzStars tonight and see old pucker face Krauthammer after Myth’s great come out week….booooyah!
We have to remember that Romney was upstaged by a Palin impersonater at CPAC in February, so it is no surprise that he was upstaged by the real Palin yesterday.
The below the fold story was about a rabid fox which received more coverage than Romney’s announcement.
All of this, the good, the bad and the ugly has been a blast so far.
Everything unfolding is like the twilight zone.
Mitt you had better get you one of those buttons you can press, I have
fallen and can’t get up, that damn Sarah Palin does it again……
Love you girl , you rock like my idol Elvis, you will always be on top of
the game and ahead of these liberal idiots…..
Palin / West 2012
I don’t think Sarah will run, but whoever does, better drop a line to her and do some serious sucking up.
Please Sarah, announce that you are running, win the nomination, and give us an entire year of gaffes…if she does an interview without the questions ahead of time.
ROTFLMAO.
And it also looks like an obituary got more coverage too.
@ Schism
You need to pull your head out of Obama’s orifice, get a little sunlight
and enjoy life a bit more…..
That darn Sarah Palin, she has almost screwed up all America since she
was elected President, say what, never mind………
Palin / West 2012
@Schism: Jesus, give it a rest already. Gaffes are what decides it for you? I know P-BO is flawless in that department, he’s the ‘toastmaster’ of the town in Britain, he knows all 57 states, he really loves Navy corpsemen, no, dude is obviously perfect. Go back in your room and watch some more of ‘Best of Sat. Nite Live’. That’s about how relevant you can hope to be in this lifetime.
But, but, she’s unelectable…or something.
Funny thing about libshits and the Obaminite propaganda ministry (MSM), they denigrate Palin ad nauseum, yet they follow her around like she’s a rock star or something. A little cognative dissonace perhaps on their part? Or is it that Palin is like a Timex watch, she takes a licking and keeps on ticking. Oh and lets not forget she’s a hot babe. Very photogenic. Something that too few MSM talking head females and reporters have in common with her. A little jealousy too perhaps? She plays the media like they were a bunch of Dunkin yo-yo’s. Uh huh, mmmm huh, I know that’s right.

Yeah, remember when she signed a guestbook with the “current” date of 2008? Oh, that was your guy. So, is Barry a time traveler or just on drugs?
