These vain self centered celebutants are finally showing their true colors. They think they know which way the wind will blow so it's time to spin on a dime and cover their asses. It's time to curry favor with TeaPublicans so they keep a constant stream of guests to bump their ratings. Someone says the President is "out of favor" so fuck him - quick - let's book Ron Paul or Ted Cruz of oh I know Darrell Issa. Anything for the fucking ratings and an invite to the next round of inside the beltway cocktail parties.

Don't fall in love with TV personalities - they don't give a shit about you - they are only in it for the money.

I've been saying this about Rachel for years, but you can't speak badly against Rachel Maddow Liberal_Stalwart71 Nov 2014 #13

I find Rachel personally very appealing. Blue Idaho Nov 2014 #14

Agreed. Great point. Larry was my favorite because he seemed most reasonable. Liberal_Stalwart71 Nov 2014 #16

Very well said! Blue Idaho Nov 2014 #17

I'm in Maryland, so I'm lucky. However, the race for governor is much tighter than it needs to be. Liberal_Stalwart71 Nov 2014 #18

That's dissapointing, especially from Lawrence. LawDeeDah Nov 2014 #9

He is the only reasonable one out of these three. I'm shocked at him, too! Liberal_Stalwart71 Nov 2014 #12

They Only Suppress The Vote otohara Nov 2014 #10

Totally agree... Rachel was pulling this before the last presidential election and I left budkin Nov 2014 #20

Do they have exit polls? I mean are they really relevant anymore? book_worm Nov 2014 #19
