I never liked Politico. Mostly because they're carpetbaggers. The guys who started it were some of the first wave of rats to leave the sinking newspaper industry. But also because these are the same rats who chewed up the guts and made the ship sink in the first place.
Vandehei practically spit his answer at me when I asked him what he thought about his former colleage at the Post, Dan Froomkin. "That guy's a disgrace. That's not real journalism."
That was when Politico just got started. Bunch of print mediums scraping their scaley palms together thinking about bringing religion to the heathen blogosphere.
