MTP today - Was it just my imagination????
Frankly, I didn't want to watch.....and I turned off the MTP interview with candidate Robme today.....but later this morning, nothing was on, and so I turned to MSNBC (which replayed the interview that I hadn't wanted to see).....and watched what must have been the last 5 minutes of the MTP interview after all.
So I just want to know, was it just me, or did Gregory not allow Robme to actually answer questions? And it always seemed to come just when it appeared that Robme might give us a specific? Plus, I heard absolutely no follow up common sense questions from Gregory, even though I was asking them to the television, and instead Gregory steered the Robme candidate to other subjects?
Examples:
1. Robme appeared to be about to give 2 specifics to the issue of his policies on the economy.....
as he said, "there are two things that I would do....one is to.....", and just then, Gregory interrupts him to make his own statement, and then asked another question, leaving Robme never to state what he'd do.
2. Gregory never asked Robme the simple question of "how would you do it" when Robme talked about "growing the economy and creating jobs".
3. Gregory never challenged Robme when Robme stated that he would balance the budget by the end of his 2nd term.
I mean......Robme wants to deny Pres. Obama a 2nd term because somehow Obama didn't get everything done that Robme believes he should have, but somehow, it's ok for Robme to say that he, about himself, he would need a 2nd term to get the budget balanced? WTF? Gregory didn't challenge that obvious one either!
In fact, Gregory didn't follow up on much of anything at all!
I came away from the interview that I saw (the last 5 minutes or so) believing that the whole thing had been rehearsed and that the interview was never meant to do anything other than to "repair" Robme's fucked up campaign to date. I especially loved how Gregory said to Robme...."what are the headlines that will be read about this Interview that turned around the election?"
paraphrasing)....like Gregory's show is soooo fucking important!
That interview was a big self serving exercises in an attempt to help Robme! It was soooo obvious to me. Was it to you (if you watched it)?
