150. That's right. Just what I was thinking while watching it.
Edited on Mon Nov-29-04 10:56 PM by bunny planet
KO's heart just wasn't in it tonight when he needed to hammer Blackwell a little harder. I mean he had just heard on air it seemed that his friend and colleague's son was dead, his voice was shaky when he relayed that news just a bit earlier. So it's understandable that he didn't go after Blackwell the same way he might have done had this tragedy not happened. KO's style seems to be more sarcastic than pure aggression though and he did try to pin some stuff on Blackwell. Sleazy people like Blackwell don't come across well no matter how much they smile into the camera. He revealed more about himself than the questions asked of him indicated, at least I thought so. It's obvious he's ticked at JJ, and he did admit, however begrudgingly that the recount will go forward. I bet he'll wish he hadn't said that. All in all, I thought just getting the F word said on national TV by a national figure, and JJ is a national figure, was important. Great news about recounts possible in NM and Nevada.

We should write to KO and thank him again, as I do every night. It was particularly difficult from a human perspective to go on with tonight's show. Let's thank him.
