She won politically but not substantively (yes, he's respectfully treating hearings as substantive because, well, new talking point at NBC is "without Benghazi hearings we never would have known about emails". Indeed, he even mentioned that while Hilary was testifying hearings about emails (dramatic squirrel) were being conducted. So while her optics are good she's still liar. He also asked Elijah Cummings why Democrats on the committee seemed to be protecting Hilary.Then,a panel discussion supposedly devoted to the Democratic race quickly devolved into a plug for Mitt Romney.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08141640791663745884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-68527091157254798552015-10-25T07:22:27.221-05:002015-10-25T07:22:27.221-05:00Slightly OT - Chuck Todd referred to Jeb Bush'...Slightly OT - Chuck Todd referred to Jeb Bush's outburst as a "moment of unusual honesty". I wonder what Chuckles would have said about a similar outburst by a Democratic candidate? Hmmm. Bueller? Anyone?<br /><br />Also said Hilary's donors more confident because of debate prep. Not one word about Benghazi hearings. Curious as to what he will say on MTP.<br /><br />God I hate these people.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08141640791663745884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-54468592600148262562015-10-24T19:10:55.294-05:002015-10-24T19:10:55.294-05:00I love DGriftglas but there are others who have be...I love DGriftglas but there are others who have ben making this arguments at least as DG. DG's value added is his incredibly insightful and entertaining writing style.<br /><br />But one other site who I recommend--though I don't always agree with him and he's often too tough on Rachael Maddow-- is The Daily Howler.

They know that everyone except people who follow politics closely (who already know the truth) will have long forgotten about these stories by the general election, and are just providing themselves an opportunity to say, "why look what we said last year," if they are called on the fact that their behavior in the months before the election is grossly slanted toward the Republicans.<br /><br />Remember, no matter how cynical you are, it isn't enough.Green Eaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13477132834757467690noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11363027.post-28578806978616505092015-10-24T15:36:07.208-05:002015-10-24T15:36:07.208-05:00 Maybe if your target audience included more filth...
