CNN's Carol Costello is so much smarter than everybody else, it's amazing she's not on a network that people actually watch:

Suzanna Logan points out how Costello evidently felt compelled to provide "a requisite number of liberal jabs," while Glenn Reynolds notices Costello claiming to speak for a nebulously unspecified "some people."

What gets me about this is Costello's condescending attitude toward her own audience, who she obviously assumes are incomptent to hear Mark Muller's explanation and decide for themselves what they think. Of course, considering that they're watching CNN, maybe they are so completely stupid as to be unable to form their own opinions without Costello's guidance.

Costello's mentor, Susan Roesgen, obviously taught her well.
