The Emperor Has No Clothes

by Michael Reagan, GOPUSA: It's inevitable that a lot of people are taking credit for the outcome of the Texas and Ohio primaries.

The skit was so effective that Mrs. Clinton was able to use it during the debate the following week, where she suggested that perhaps Obama needed a pillow. The effect of Hillary's sarcasm and the earlier SNL skit was to spur the media to take a closer look at Obama, whom they had all but elevated to sainthood over the past year. So they began to look below the surface. Lo and behold, out popped Tony Rezco and what has become known as "Naftagate," . . .
