Of course the media is infantile when their main news source is a baby!

Thanks to Jeff over on Shakesville (or should it be IN Shakesville?):

Election Central reports that Drudge (who the hell and why still reads that sleazeball of all people!?) tried to slander Edwards by insinuating that his daughter Emma-Claire supports Hillary:

Her comment came in response to a Drudge item quoting a local newspaper account that suggested that the Edwards' nine-year-old child supported Hillary, not her father.

Election Central has learned that Elizabeth put a comment in the comments section of another Web site's post debunking the Drudge item.

Elizabeth claimed the daughter was joking and mocked Drudge as follows:

"It was Emma Claire, who pointed to a Hillary pin slyly and then, smiling pointed to her father. A nine-year [old] sense of humor -- you would have thought Matt Drudge would have been able to pick up on that."

I thought the conservatives were arrested at an adolescent stage of emotional development, but some like Drudge were, apparently, left behind even earlier - in temper-tantrumesque toddlerhood.
