3. Is he a guest or is he a "Tucker"? ... eom

[mod mom]

7. He was posed next to a regular Dem pundit, but I had to turn it off to write-

I WAS SO PISSED! he needs to be subpoenaed not given air time.

[Kolesar]

9. The gop needs a "top Tom" right now

Lynn Swann lost. J.C.Watts quit. Alan Keyes is nowhere to be seen. Goon Blackwell has taken a salary at the RW "Buckeye Institute" while he formulates his next package of perverted gop messages for the 21st century.

14. YEP...I saw him there...and Tweety SUCKED UP TO HIM...without ANY Problem...

Yet...Ken Blackwell is as EVIL AS CONDI RICE...and MAYBE MORE SO!

Tweety Gushed and slavered over him...egging him on agains that WEAK "so called Dem Rep. MacMahon" who is always on his show like a "whipped animal" in the mold of Colmes on Faux News.

"Whip the Dem Dog" is what they do. I want to know why Rahm Emmanuel and Howard Dean haven't SHUT DOWN the likes of MacMahon and Donna Brazille from the DEM PUNDITS that the WHORE CABLES always have on their shows.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. WHO DO THESE PEOPLE WORK FOR? Certainly NOT DEMOCRATS...They work for themselves as Whores of the Media and somebody is probably shouveling the $$$$$$$$'s in their BACK POCKETS AS THEY WHORE THEIR WARES on the Cables as "supposed Dem Consultants!" :puke: That's what they are....BARF!

15. Shocking indeed n/t

[NMDemDist2]

16. my letter...

Are you kidding? He is yet another Republican who left office under a cloud and you are giving him a microphone?

At least *try* to find a Republican who isn't tarnished with corruption to be your guest.

Oh wait, that's almost impossible these days isn't it?

Nevermind.....

PS: My husband wants to add he doesn't think that letting Republicans come on to spout talking points that are patently false without rebuttal from Mr. Matthews lives up to your show's billing of "Hardball."

[bleever]

17. That's despicable.

I'm emailing them.

[autorank]

18. K*R Right! and these are the folks who would cover IMPEACHMENT

May Blackwell is there for exposure to deflect election fraud charges against Bush.

Wasn't it Jack Welch who reportedly insisted NBC call it for Bush in 2000 when he
lacked news backing.

BREAK UP THE MEDIA TRUSTS

[brentspeak]

19. The only place I want to see him is in a prison cell, with Tom DeLay as his cellmate

[Cameron27]

20. They're giving his opinion credibility...

it's totally disgusting.

[bleever]

21. My letter:

As a regular viewer of Hardball, I'm very disappointed at seeing Ken Blackwell presented as a pundit or credible guest, given his deep involvement in delivering Ohio's votes to Bush by any means necessary, including some that were clearly unethical and likely illegal.

It's not that he lacks credibility; it goes beyond that to his being an unsavory actor in election activities that are deplorable and undemocratic. I would be glad to see him interviewed about the 2004 election in Ohio, but beyond that, any exposure you give him does a disservice to your show and your viewers.

Thank you,

xxxxxxxxxx

22. Great letter. Thanks.

I voiced my opinion that not only did he place serious doubt in the entire election system, but he failed in his role as SOS where he couldn't even manage 88 BOEs. It is shameful knowing the partisan lean he placed in administering election that he be seen as a pundit. He couldn't even muster 40% 0f the vote for governor.

23. Kick

Blackwell on TV is like Bernard Kerick running a prison now.
