Did you watch Howard Dean on CNBC Topic A?
He did a great job tonight, and for anyone who didn't see it, it will be rebroadcast at 11PM EDT.

He was a fill-in host and he was so relaxed. Talked to all his guests (Jon Stewart, Tavis Smiley & Bev of BBV). I know he said he wasn't interested in this kind of career change, but he was very good at it.

He did a great job in showiwng the problems with BBV (with Bev's help of course.). Talked about the racial problem with Tavis & some talk show host Tom Leykis. Did some fun stuff with Jon Stewart. If you can stay up, it's worth the watch.

I'm trying to find an email address for CNBC to tell them how much I enjoyed him as a guest host!

1. First time I'd heard Dean was on the Tavis Smiley show...
...so ABSOLUTELY ;)

Thought it was great.

3. I sent an email to CNBC about how much I enjoyed him,
asked them to invite him back as guest host again! They didn't have a contact for the Topic A show, so I sent the email to the Wakeup Call. I hope the producers get the message! I really did enjoy the show.

4. Saw It
It was a great job by Dean. Bev Harris is on it big time concerning the voting machines. Real possible to hack them and little being done to fix it.

23. Since Topic A is a good show, and we don't have a lot of those,
I don't really care to be snippy with them.

What's to gain by being snotty with our own?

:eyes:

14. Thanks! Just sent another email just in case they didn't see the first.
I still can't believe how well Howard did as guest host! I've always been a supporter, but he was never what I would call a GREAT orator. I loved the message, but he did stumble quite a bit, and had to correct lots of his words. Tonight, he sounded like he was talking to me right in my living room. I know, that's what hosts are supposed to do, but he was really relaxed at this job, and it showed.

Great job Howard!!!

7. I'm watching right now.
He did say, he didn't think he would do this as a regular thing. I still have hopes that Kerry finds a place for him in his administration.

8. Bev was great in showing how the election can be rigged!
I just hope something can be done especially in states like mine (MD) that have no paper trail!

13. yep
...and not only was this show great with Howard Dean, it's also great with Tina Brown. This is probably the most liberal show on the air these days, and it's usually excellent.

16. McEnroe's show is pretty liberal, too.
CNBC, giving liberals a voice. Who'da thunk it?

24. it was great
Edited on Mon Aug-09-04 06:12 PM by Ducks In A Row
Margaret Cho said she was glad Dean hadn't canceled the interview. Ha Ha. Like jab at the hypocrity of the Dems in Boston (which is was, and they should apologize)
