Andrea Mitchell hit Tucker Bounds hard over the Ayers attacks by John McCain and Sarah Palin. (rough transcript)
Mitchell: There's been no question that there's been an exaggeration in a lot of the things Sarah Palin has said about the relationship. Why do that? What are you trying to suggest? Are you trying to make Barack Obama seem to be some sort of terrorist himself? This man has been running for President for the last two years and has been vetted through twenty two primary debates. Already two debates in the general election. Um, What's your point?

Bounds: I'm not indicting the board. I don't think there's a problem with the board. I think there's a problem with having an unrepentant terrorist who's your friend and then going before the American people and them misrepresenting
It's not a problem that Walter Annenberg's money was used apparently for the Republicans.
Bounds sounds just like Sean Hannity. Shameful.
