Question re. "Hardball" with Chris Matthews.
Those who've watched Matthews much have noticed his fondness for catch phrases and pet words, e.g. "forked tongue," "pussyfoot," "full-mooners." What's that word he uses that means "choice tidbit" or "morsel" in the sense of "piquant bit of information"? I want to say "butternut" for some reason, but I know it's not that. And hey, if you get a kick out of some other Tweetyism, post that, too.

2. I love his references to old pols
"Hillary had her Ed Muskie moment".

"Would the Democrats tolerate a Scoop Jackson type hawk in their midst right now?"

"This reminds me of '68 when they had to drag the anti-war left to Humphrey, kicking and screaming..."
