Is it really so crazy that David Shuster would draw a connection between politics and prostitution? The Clinton campaign is making hay out of this for their own reasons--and they may even get a nice sympathy bump out of the whole thing--but why would MSNBC suspend the guy? The only cause for suspension is his pathetic apology...("to the extent that people feel I was being pejorative, I apologize about that").

What's really interesting is that just a few days after calling upon Obama to schedule more debates--a request Obama politely declined--the Clinton camp is now threatening to cancel the MSNBC debate scheduled for Feb. 26. Could the reversal have anything to do with her recent fundraising turnaround?
