She seems to favor ass kissers over people with ability. Cost her big time in 2008.

It should be a big red flag when choosing a presidential candidate. If she can't hire a halfway decent "communications director" how can you have any confidence in her choices for cabinet or staff positions? What kind of SCOTUS nominees would she put forward?

I didn't see her tonight, but generally speaking she is talented and knowledgable. So if you want to trash her because of one interview, I'm thinking you have a different agenda than a psa.

trying to get in a word. It is annoying when he does that, so it's probably more Tweety's obnoxiousness that you saw.

I was surprised at her actually.

I'm still undecided, but I'm a Hillary fan nonetheless.

Karen is an excellent spokesperson when she has chance to talk.

if they can not stand up to matthews i think it might be time to put someone else in that position..and please don't read this as a diss on the candidate that you support..it is not...it's just that any candidate has to put out their strongest people to the front lines

I would expect a person in her position to be ready to take advantage of what little airtime she got. Maybe she's good at purchasing twitter followers or some such.
