[edit] not to be trusted

this guy loves to scream sex/sex/sex in his political reporting. he was extensively criticized by Bob Somerby for his recent reporting of the effect of Governor Spitzer's sex scandal on Hilary clinton's campaign:

BAKER: " It may be that voters conclude that Spitzer’s indiscretions have nothing at all to do with whether Hillary Clinton can effectively serve as president. And it may be that Spitzer ultimately does resign, allowing the political dialogue to move on. "

Really? It may be that voters conclude that? Why on earth would voters conclude that Eliot Spitzer’s indiscretions bore on the question of Clinton’s effectiveness? The analysts enjoyed a good solid laugh at Baker’s silly, Starr-era clowning.
