Matt, please talk about how the US press is violating the Freedom of the Press ammendment.

HRC/Hillary/The Queen will win the voters that:

- Believe Obama is a Muslim.
- Believe Obama has no experience at all. He is like an intern.
- Believe that Obama is not a legitimate American citizen. He was raised in a 3rd world country.

Etc.

The HRC is going on attack. Check drudge now. The Clintons + Press will demolish Obama.

I am so sad. I am so loser.

Rachel was great on MSNBC last night. Her beatdown of that idiot Matthews was a lovely thing to see.

I do not like Rachel. She is so pro-HRC that it shows. Why was she calling HRC's speech like that of a true winner. Why did she complain that independents/GOP voters voted for Obama?

The US press is slimey. Pakistan has more free reporters than in the US. Same with Saudi Arabia.

Please tell Ms. Maddow that, the next time she sees Matthews, she should remind him that coming in fourth is not a win, even if the fourth place finisher's name is John McCain.

Maddow is walking a classic line inaugurated in the 19th century--black men v. white women for "first". Black men got the vote first. She couldn't hide her Hill bias but she made it clear that she was also excited about Obama. Ultimately though, she's going with the white woman.

I agree with Kay, but I like Rachel on MSNBC (even though she sometimes goes too far arguing her point) and I think they have the best panel on cable news by far. She made a great point about Huckabee last night. He is destroying the Republican coalition. Everything was fine when the rich guys and warmongers could take the Christian right for granted and scare them to the polls with gay rights or abortion rhetoric, but they never delivered anything. Now that the Evangelicals are driving the bus it's a different story. The Republican establishment and people like Limbaugh hate Huckabee because they feel that he might not follow up on the things they care about like the Bush tax cuts. I love it! Burn baby burn.

Rachel's best moment last night was when Tweety described 'people vs. system' politics as the stuff of 'ideologues': she came back and noted that every politician campaigns on improving things like healthcare, and something stops it from happening.

I agree that that MSNBC panel is the best on cable.
