I don't like him any more than you do, and am annoyed that his presence takes coverage away from other candidates. I'm just trying to explain how the press works. If they thought he was a serious candidate, they would bust him for his past. Duke has come close to winning. Sharpton isn't going to win, even in South Carolina, and everyone knows it. I'm sure there are reporters who have asked him about his past, but those are his funniest lines -- by design, I'm sure -- and so no one runs them.
