Just a comment about the election coverage...

Don't know what's on FOX and I don't care. Didn't even peek.

Have had on MSNBC all night, except when I thought I should see what CNN has on, but I find I miss Rachel and even Chris and the others when I'm not watchlng them..

Rachel's excitement is contagious. Nobody beats her at elections...

Her last goofy remark was, as explaining to Matthews, "As soon as you have sex you become two people." Something to do with Colorado abortions....

As the night wore on, he got more obnoxious.

If anybody disagreed with him, he got pissed, and he never let anyone finish a sentence. Rachel disagreed with him on his predictions on how the reps would act once they were in power, and he didn't like it at all.

What bothered me most was when Rachel was talking about another topic later, they showed a camera view showing only the two of them sitting there, and Matthews had this bored expression on his face, like he was tired of listening to Rachel. The look was not the typical type of expression one sees with a guest host. I think he deep down doesn't like that they both know she's in charge....

The camera after a few minutes showed just Rachel.

She was good all night - interesting comments and observations. Tweety was like his usual pit bull holding on to the stage, never letting anyone finish a thought. Everyone showed deference to Sharpton when he spoke, and Sharpton always had a look that told Matthews that said "Don't interrupt me," and Matthews didn't..

Yes, your thought is one shared by many.

and they must keep him or he will talk.
Seriously he is just what Comcast wants on MSNBC - a supposed liberal who is a buffoon and a prima donna. His mouth runs so fast he often contradicts himself and will spew republican talking points like they are nuggets of wisdom.

I have pretty much quit watching MSNBC. I watch Rachel online and that is about all.
