1. Happy/Sad faces.....lol

I get so much enjoyment out of watching scarface and buchanan sit there in their little box with their sad, dejected faces while Robinson and Maddow are GLOWING with enthusiasm and charm.

The repug ship is taking on sewage, and it's sinking by it's own disgusting weight.

2. They had to put Uncle Pat on for Rachel to beat up

So she could make nice again with Joe.

[dbonds]

3. Ever get the feeling Rachel is far more intelligent than any other talking head?

[Hamlette]

5. obviously...she is WAY smarter....I think Obama should pick her for press secretary

she'd do great by him

(One complaint, I think Hillary is doing well in part because of Rendel and no one, not even Rachel, mentions is. I know sometimes I'm swayed by a local pol I really like and I wonder if that might not be having an impact. Other than that, I'm not sure what they are thinking in PA.)

6. I LOVE the idea of Rachel as Obama's Press Secretary! nt

[Hamlette]

9. she certainly has the credentials

undergraduate in public policy from Stanford, Rhodes scholar, PhD from Oxford in political science.

He should hire her for something!

[gateley]

12. I didn't know her educational background,

except that she's "not that kind of a doctor". I'm even more impressed - she's put in the effort to know her stuff.

[Hamlette]

14. someone here linked to an article about her a week or so ago so I "looked her up"

to find out more. She's quite impressive. Astonishingly articulate, quick on her feet, knows her stuff.

I think I've fallen in love with her...but don't tell my hubby. ;)

10. Rachel is so incredible! Swift on her 'feet' and ultra intelligent. Perfect as Obama's Press...

...Secretary although, I believe, she supports Hillary Clinton.

Correct me if I'm wrong here - honestly - but she appeared to me, to be a Hillary Clinton backer. If that's the case, I doubt she'd want to be Obama's Press Secretary if he wins the WH.

[ProfessorPlum]

15. Maddow has been very supportive of the Obama campaign

and has shared the disgust of most Democrats at the Clinton campaign's recent tactics.

Don't know that she'd want a press secretary job, but I don't think she'd rather work for Clinton than Obama.

[Hamlette]

17. I would have agreed with you a month ago

I thought she was a Clinton supporter then but I'm not so sure now. She's been critical of Hillary's campaign tactics.

[mucifer]

16. That's a nice thought but we need her on TV challenging the morons.

[Hamlette]

4. thanks for doing this, I have to turn it off each night listening to Pat and Joe

but I do want to hear Rachel so this way I can!

[ProfessorPlum]

11. You bet. Duckofprey does a great job editing these clips.

[raystorm7]

7. She gives Joe a pat on the head to make him feel good about himself...poor Joe

8. JOHN "THE REPUBLICAN" MCCAIN.... WEAR THE TITLE PROUDLY ON THE BUMPER OF THE STRAIGHT TALK BUS

13. Rachel, I value what she says.
