CNN Elevates The Dialogue With A "Queen Kong vs. Barack-zilla" Analogy

By Nicole Belle

This is proof that the primary season is making everyone a little punchy.  CNN has been reduced to likening Hillary Clinton to King Kong against Barack Obama's Mecha-Godzilla in an "epic" duel of cinematic monster proportions.  

I understand the need to find ways to cover the primary race--one that has basically the same narrative for the last year: two candidates running basically neck and neck down to the wire--differently.  But this is ridiculous, and really demeaning to Democrats as well...can you picture the same story done for the Republican race and the resulting outcry?
