2. I'm getting a kick out of her facial expressions
She deserves a medal for trying to make sense out of Tweety's spit-soaked rants.

4. She is 5 times more intelligent than Tweety and 10 times easier on the eyes.
Love her!

5. I'm so proud of how far she's come.
She started as the third wheel on that original AAR show with Lizz Winstead and Chuck D. And now she's given us a voice in the Corporate Media. Truly proud I am.

6. Dump Tucker and give Rachel his time slot!
Edited on Fri Jan-04-08 12:54 AM by BattyDem

Better yet, move Tweety up an hour and give her his time slot. Then we can go directly from Rachel to Keith! :patriot:

9. I saw a media rumor that suggested just that.
If this item I read is to be believed, MSNBC is doing test shows with Rachel and thinking of replacing Bowtie Boy with her.

7. I can't watch it, but I'm going to trust you on this, given Maddow's track record.

11. She just compared Obama to George Bush 2 seconds ago.
And she says he is campaigning like GWB.

14. Mt favorite moment from last night: Tweety was looking at the results and
he said, "Look at that, TWO-THIRDS of the voters voted against Hillary!!!"

and Rachel shot back, without a second's hesitation,

"Well, two thirds of the voters voted against EVERYONE."

Tweety is so dense, it took a while for it to dawn on him...

16. I wonder if Tweety is even aware that she has a PhD in Political Science
Edited on Fri Jan-04-08 01:06 PM by Beaverhausen
He was way out of his league arguing with her last night. He is really a jackass. I really hope she gets her own show.

19. Tweety's body language last night was so telling.
He kept turning his back to Rachel and directing all of his comments to Buchanan. Maddow really did have the most cogent analysis all night.
