David Gregory tonight...first headline .re: Jesse Jackson:"Is Obama Glow Gone?"

[ErinBerin84]

Hmmm, David Gregory. Did you not cover this YESTERDAY? Yes, yes I think you did. This couldn't be an attempt to defer attention away from your bestie's economic adviser fuck up, could it? (yeah, they'll prob cover that too eventually, but I just turned it off after seeing that as the FIRST headline).

[gateley]

1. Oh Jesus. Get the hook. nt

[skooooo]

2. I still think there's an not insignificant...

...number of people who will find Obama more acceptable after hearing Jackson putting him down.

[rufus dog]

13. Gregory even agrees with your belief

And Smerkonish jumped on it saying it will be a big win for Obama.

[billyoc]

3. If Rachel Maddow isn't there I shine him on.

She might still be sitting in for Olberman, though. :woohoo:

[tridim]

4. Go dance with Rove again and let Rachel have your job.

Idiot.

[BeyondGeography]

5. Dopiest show on cable

which is saying a lot...

[ErinBerin84]

6. he could at least use the same headline and talk about

"The Left's" (as they put it) frustration with Obama re:FISA. But to have this headline in reference to the Jesse Jackson story? David Gregory, your days and rotten ratings are numbered....Rachel's rising star will eventually get rid of this ridiculous show (well, we can hope, right?)

[babylonsister]

7. It's so damned obvious they're trying to 'create' bad press where

there is none. Typical.

[pot luck]

8. Heh. David is getting pissed

His panel of conservatives isn't agreeing with him.

[jenmito]

9. I couldn't believe it when I saw it. But finally they're getting around to saying it HELPS him.

Sadly, though, I've come to expect this negative spin on EVERYTHING. Gregory KEEPS asking, "But doesn't it take a little shine off the apple?" Or, "But doesn't it show his base is really disappointed in him?" These questions don't even make SENSE!

[ErinBerin84]

10. lol! "a little shine off the apple?"

I have to admit...I kind of wish I could get someone to liveblog these stupid shows, because as much as I complain about them, it is funny to hear the exchanges some time. Did they get to Dr Phil yet?

[jenmito]

12. I agree. They're getting to the Gramm comment now...

I'm sure they'll show the Dr. Phil response. They played it on Hardball and even Buchanan thought it was a brilliant response. :D

[rufus dog]

11. sorry opened a similar thread and then saw this.

his next story is Obama forgot to ask for money for Hillary.

This guy is just a TOOL!

I called my Right Wing Whacko Bro In Law who works for USB (Gramm heads up the US operations) and he was shocked with the Gramm comment.

[jenmito]

14. Harold Ford just gave "advice" to Obama not to make jokes about this (the Dr. Phil comment).

:eyes:

[ErinBerin84]

16. uhhhhhh, ok, Harold.

Obama's "Dr Phil" joke was a big hit. Harold Ford JR's idea of a big hit is a lime green backgrop and sniveling.


MCCAIN's the one who shouldn't be making jokes about this.

[jenmito]

17. He said the economy's a serious matter or something like that. I REALLY don't like him-

his DLC colors show more every day.

[VADem11]

19. Agreed

McCain responded by calling Obama Dr. No. When you reference a movie character from 1962, you know your campaign has issues.

[jenmito]

15. Jeez! Making a big deal of Jackson and then Obama's fundraising "late comment" and gave the

McCain segment about 2 minutes sandwiched in between. And coming up-more on Obama's "shift to the center." Now I see why Gregory looked like he was having so much fun partying with Rove at the Correspondents' Dinner. :eyes:

[grantcart]

18. Gregory gee what a little eager beaver

[jenmito]

20. Look at him sticking up for BUSH now re: the "regret" question.

:eyes:

[ecstatic]

21. I saw that! I was so disgusted and angry with him. I'm sick of his sht1!!

[pot luck]

22. Wow. Did he just say that Gramm is Obama's advisor? n/t

[rufus dog]

23. The Obama not having a big enough lead is his final? smear

Dick I mean David says if you look into the polling data a third of the voters may change! Yes they are called REPUBLICANS!

[Canuckistanian]

24. Lemme get this straight

Because Jackson said something incredibly stupid that criticizes Obama, that means that people like Obama less now?

Have I got that right?

[TexasObserver]

25. "Is Obama stopping McCain from being more interesting?!"

EVERYTHING is Obama's fault or responsibility.

[Danger Mouse]

26. David Gregory is a shit-eating hack.

[ChimpersMcSmirkers]

27. I give Tweety some cred today for leading with Dr. Phil...
