Chris Hayes taking over for Joe Scarborough on MSNBC

It's my dream, my fantasy.
3 hours a day of rational intelligent discussion about the daily news.
Could it ever happen?

BTW, in my dream Jon Stewart would be the host of Meet The Press.

They would not be able to get through their talking points with her, and she would befuddle them.

to cultivate their talking points. MtP hosted by Rachel Maddow may be the only venue where ALL politicians would be confronted with facts and not permitted to obfuscate. Ha! As if.

Well, we can dream.
