Worst Book Review Ever?

What does this even mean?

Palin bad! Obama good! Racists! Fascists!

(King.)

King bad. King kind of good. But only good because sophisticates know how bad he is. Rubes who think he's good: Also bad.

Teabaggers!

Seems to me that King has earned a more serious effort from the New York Times. (Though on third read, I'm not sure it's clear that the reviewer actually read the whole book.)

How is this plot any different than the plot for "The Mist"?

This GS post made me realize that it's been at least 3 years since I read anything in the NYT.
