Morning Joe still doin' "shudda, cudda, wudda" on Cuccinello...

This is the THIRD day of this tiresome mantra: if Cooch had just concentrated on Obamacare, if the crazies hadn't shut down the government, blah, blah, blah...it was only a 3 point margin when they said it would be 10 points, voters hate Obamacare above everthing else...and oh, boy, this is really BAD news for the Democratic Party...see how close it was, yadda, yadda...

Well, as John Boehner so poetically puts it: "If 'ifs' and 'buts' were candies and nuts, every day would be Christmas."

And Cooch is firmly on the crazy side.

And there was like one poll that said it would be anywhere near ten points. His Monday-morning-quarterbacking is based on nothing more than a fundamental misunderstanding of how off-year elections trend, how wildly inaccurate polling models can be, and underestimating how terrible a candidate Terry McAuliffe was--and yet he STILL won.

5. Deedee Myers was on yesterday and explained all that to Joe and the panel! She rebutted every point.

Even Mika was keeping up her "if Cuccinella had concentrated on Obamacare he would have won." Myers said that Mika and Joe were only citing the way REpublicans polled on Obamacare, not the rest of the voters. She also said that the 20% of voters who said that abortion was their number ONE issue was pretty impressive!

It's rare that I watch MJ, as it's such a bad way to start the day--angry and with high blood pressure!

6. Actually, I felt pretty good because they were still clinging to a badly discredited theory...Deedee

Myers shredded their whole premise yesterday and it was a joy to watch!

And today Howard Dean was on and really pushed back hard on current repub. talking points...it was another thing of beauty.

I feel pretty good about how lame these repukes are all sounding..
