CNN's Candy Crowley: Ryan Pick 'Looks a Little Bit Like Some Sort of Ticket Death Wish'

As NewsBusters has been noting all Saturday morning, now that Paul Ryan has been chosen as Mitt Romney's running mate, the goal of the Obama-loving media is to rip him to shreds.

Doing her part Saturday was CNN's Candy Crowley who said that this "looks a little bit like some sort of ticket death wish" (video follows with transcript and commentary):

CANDY CROWLEY, CNN: We’ve already had this debate. All they have to do at Obama Reelect is open up the files because this debate has already happened. They just bring it back, it goes, it is, you know, what they talk about. But I think the other thing that’s worth pointing out is not every Republican has signed on to this kind of, I mean, they will publicly. But there is some trepidation…

GLORIA BORGER, CNN: They're afraid.

CROWLEY: ...that this might be, looks a little bit like some sort of ticket death wish. That, oh, my gosh, do we really want to talk about these thing? Is this where we want to go when the economy is so bad? We could have stayed on that.

A ticket death wish?

Readers are advised this came right after CNN's Gloria Borger called Ryan "a polarizing figure."

Is this how the folks at CNN think they're going to improve their continually declining ratings?

So appropriate, that my husband will arise and vote his tombstone vote. Actually he would laugh at that. lol As well as Elvis Presley returning----------my husband and Elvis died 1 day apart. And, they both served in Frankfurt Germany at the same time. I believe you would be surprised at the government workers and private contractors who want Obama out in Northern Virginia. They will vote in November recognizing that the insanity of Obama's policies have failed us. Rarely do government workers reveal their true opinion over the phone---they do vote in the General Election. Obama will most likely carry Southern Arlington and Alexandria. The rest of No. Va. will imo likely go to Romney and Ryan. Considering Obama's wanting to control the Catholic Church I see a possible scenario for the Catholics saying no to Obama in Arlington, tilting the election away from Obama--------Catholics were strong supporters of Reagan. Obama is no Reagan.
