    Matthews is seriously considering running for Arlen Specter's seat in PA as a Democrat.

    http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=275140

    He worked for Jimmy Carter and, as noted above, worked for Tip O'Neill, who was Speaker of the House.

    He is a partisan hack, and anything he says should be viewed in the same manner as anything Sean Hannity would say.

    Fixed your post. Dude - noboby with any objectivity thinks Palin won the debate. She did fine, but Biden - as expected - debated better.

    But Palin did what she was supposed to do. She didn't fuck up, and she kept bringing the focus back to McCain.

    The problem for the Republicans is that they need a game-changer at this point because they are lagging big-time in the polls, and Palin isn't going to do anything but appeal the people that were already voting for McCain anyway.

    I take that back. AOL looks really cool from that ad. I think I'm going to plug in my modem and give it a try!

    And you're a Net fan! That's two strikes against you. At least you don't go to school in Washington, DC. That would be--wow. :devilwink:

    He got into it with Keith Olbermann because KO is an imperious, insufferable jackhole. Chris Matthews definitely has his biases, but he's always been pretty fair-minded. In that sense, he followed Tim Russert's model. However, his anger with the current administration is so palpable (he voted for then-Gov. Bush in 2000) and he has his rules (that when things are bad, you throw the party-in-power out of the WH) that he doesn't give the McCain campaign a fair shake.

    And worse than working for Tip O'Neill, he was the author of the "malaise" speech for Jimmy Carter. In fact, I'm convinced that it's his latent anger of having everything wrong with the country in 1980 hung around his boss' neck that drives him to drop any facade of impartiality and shake the pom-poms for Obama. He thinks that anyone with an "R" after his or her name needs to be chucked.

    As an aside, does anyone else think that NBC's political coverage has become untethered without Tim Russert? It really seems as there's no one reminding them what fairness is.

    Pretty much that both did well, perhaps a slight edge to Biden overall but in retrospect to the expectations, big win for Palin. Not sure if it was kitty kay...they had two french people talking about it afterwards too

    If everything on MSNBC is crap, Countdown is the worst diarrhea imaginable.
