Perhaps you’ve heard Gov. Palin refer to”Tito the Builder” on the trail recently (in the same bit where she calls her opponent “Barack The Wealth Spender”)?
Here’s David Corn’s encounter with Tito Munoz, who announces he is “disgusted with you guys,” for “going after Joe the Plumber” but not reporting “all the time” on Obama’s relationship with Bill Ayers. And by “you guys,” Tito’s “talking about NBC, MSNBC, CBS, ABC, and CNN. And New York Times. And Washington Post.” When Corn replies that the New York Times has had “the longest story to date about Ayers,” Tito answers, “and also another one about Cindy McCain that was probably insulting and negative.” (If, you know, Tito had to guess).
