One thing that people seems to forget, Obama went through a harsher and longer primary. Everything that could've came out about Obama came out during the primary. By the time the election came around, there was nothing new to talk about. It was the same thing with McCain. However, Palin is a different story. She was a clean slate and with McCain and Obama completely vetted out, Palin was the next person to be vetted.

Nothing about biases, just that Palin was an unknown and she had a story to be told. McCain camp messed up royally and did not told the story well.
