Abby Huntsman is leaving to work on her father's gubernatorial campaign. I admit I was disappointed to learn it isn't Ms McCain leaving. Maybe someone can talk her husband into running for some office, so she can leave and campaign.
Better yet, call her bluff and hire Anna Navarro as Abby's replacement.

(4,178 posts)She has too much to say about some topics and tries to dominate the cinversatiib.
Bye bye
Would love to see Anna Navarro .

(3,836 posts)I cannot stomach that show, although I rather like Joy Behar. I used to like and admire Whoopie, so I am not sure why she turns me off these days. I haven't watched it in years.

(102,292 posts)show. It is sometimes painful to see her stifle her own views just to play moderator. That is probably what is hard to watch (at least for me) in terms of Whoopi. I love Joy. I very rarely watch and probably wouldn't even if I were home all day. But, the clips I see are usually the ones featuring Joy, or Anna Navaro or those rare instances when Whoopi lets loose.
As conservatives go, Huntsman is probably the least objectionable, though she does often get on my nerves with her naivete re: RW history and memes-- as though the Republicans of her father's generation have anything at all with those of today. Of course, compared to Meghan, I'd take Abby any day.

(26,268 posts)It was a very interesting exchange.
When I tune in, I have the mute button at hand so I can avoid the rude, self righteous, self victimizing nonsense that spews out of Meghan McCain's mouth. She's the only embarrassment to the Female gender that I can see, on the show. I do like listening to Whoopie and Joy, and to an extent, Sunny.

(28,820 posts)Whoopi is smart. Joy is smart. Sunny is fine.
Navarro is okay. Everyone forgets she is a registered Republican. Like Nicole Wallace.
I like her now but next time there is a viable Repub she will change her tune.
If they replace McCain they will get someone worse like SE Crupp.
I enjoy MMs meltdowns. Shes bossy and arrogant and gets slapped down regularly.
I find it entertaining.
And MMs most redeeming quality... she likes Joe Biden. Having a puke on National tv not bashing Joe is worth it for me.

(26,268 posts)Her rudeness to other panel members, and especially to the audience, is inexcusable. Anyone else would have been fired, ages ago. The only time I like watching her is when she either gets a verbal smackdown, or gets schooled or ignored by a guest. I worked with someone, like Meghan, and it was torture, every day.

(18,748 posts)Jodie Comer, Fiona Shaw, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and Emerald Fennel replaced EVERYBODY.
And for fun, you could throw in Gwenyth (sp?) Paltrow as a guest.
