I thought Rachel did a great job filling in for Gregory, She has done KO. Now on to Hardball?

1. MSNBC has plans for her, from what I've seen...

That was a big fill-in test for her and she knocked it out of the park!!!

2. Boy did she ever. She is simply amazing. I thought she brought the entire show to a different level

the guests even rose to the occassion. Let's face she is on the left, but I don't see it coming out when she hosts shows. She seems to turn off that switch and ask really smart and fair questions.

3. I'm almost afraid to ask

Why was she filling in for Gregory? Was he too overcome with grief at the death of tim (integrity is for paupers) russert to go on with his show?

4. I would give anything to be a fly on the wall at 30 Rock right now.

I'm betting that Tweety Matthews is blowing everyone from the CEO down to the mail room guys trying to get Russert's gig. He will pull out all the stops to get MTP. He's not qualified but that has never stopped MSNBC from giving him a platform to drool, spaz and go completely nuts on every dang night.

Would love to see Maddow get MTP. She is a honest, straight forward journalist that is smarter than anyone in the room. Imagine that, the guests would actually have to rehearse their lies on Saturday nights before sitting across the desk from her on Sunday morning.

How can the same company that gives us Olbermann and Maddow be the same one that give Joe Dead Intern, BowTie Tucker, Pat Buchanan and Tweety Matthews jobs?

5. Wow! What a great response. You summed it all up so very well.

[But....]

6. Wow...

Maddow doing MTP, that would be perfect, sadly I don't think it will happen(although in a perfect world...)O8)
