MSNBC's "B" team covering the election tonight.

[aaaaaa5a]

There is no Rachel Maddow, Laurence O'donnell, Ed Schultz, or Chris Mathews. We likely will be without Eugene Robinson, Howard Fineman etc. too.


Michael Smerconish is the host.



Its still much better than MSNBC's usual weekend prison porn. And at least I'm not forced to watch FOX tonight for political coverage.

1. Indeed. Better than the usual fare. nt

2. Well that is a good lineup. I like Smerconish. It will be fine. I can't watch either CNN or FOX

[banned from Kos]

3. Smerconish is ok. He is a Republican turned Obama supporter.

They can add a lot.

See Bruce Bartlett too.

4. Chuck Todd is there!

He must be union busting the way MSNBC schedules its weekend programing!



Thankfully, thats in the process of changing.

5. Thanks for the heads up,

I guess the "A" team needs a night off?

[aaaaaa5a]

6. I would agree.

However, MSNBC is suppose to be "The Place For Politics!"

And heck, we only have these kinds of events once every 4 years.


Does Bob Costas take off weekends for the Olympics, with the understanding that that even though its a once every 4 year special event, he normally doesn't work weekends?

7. you really think there's anything to comment on? eom

[Firebrand Gary]

8. This is good! Let them all get brushed up so they can lose the prison garbage!

[HipChick]

9. They dragged Tweety out to come out at 8pm EST

[aaaaaa5a]

10. That must mean Howard Fineman is there too.

Those two are connected at the hip.

[BumRushDaShow]

11. LOL

Sometimes Fineman has to steady Tweety when he suddenly talks so fast in Fluffian [font size="1"](Philadelphian)[/font] that he stutters!

[aaaaaa5a]

12. That's good!
