being too positive about Hillary Clinton a couple of times. I felt that she was going out of her way to paint Hillary Clinton in a negative light, as if to appease the mob.

Chris Matthews. He gets on my nerves but at least he hasn't played favorites or been too chicken to point out reality.

It must be frustrating and embarrassing to appear on his show.

If you get a chance, you should have a look at last night's show to understand what I mean.

It's one thing to use that format to educate and inform, it's another to use it every single night.

When I woke up I'd just had a dream about Chris Matthews and Donald Trump screaming at each other and me yelling at them to STOP! At least, I think it was a dream since I am known for yelling at the TV.

all the presidential candidates, I thought she was going in the direction of how even the other GOP candidates like Kasich and Rubio showed some humor and self control when they were punked and how Trump was the only one who got all bent out of shape and nasty about it. Then I thought she was going to show that Hillary was the most good natured and humorous about being punked. I think it is a stroke of genius for Hillary people to use the two guys to their advantage. Instead, Rachel just acted like she didn't get it. Kind of surprising since Rachel seems to employ humor a lot on her show.
