“Uncle” Walter Cronkite, on Larry King Live last night, reacts to the Osama bin Laden tape:
So now the question is basically right now, how will this affect the election? And I have a feeling that it could tilt the election a bit. In fact, I’m a little inclined to think that Karl Rove, the political manager at the White House, who is a very clever man, he probably set up bin Laden to this thing.
Larry King, being Larry King, naturally doesn’t follow up with anything approaching “Mr. Cronkite, are you serious? Have you lost your mind?”
