Steve Schmidt canned by MSNBC?

[SHRED]

Anyone know details why?

[snowybirdie]

1. He's going to be working

for Howard Schultz.

2. Yeah, I caught a bit of him talking positively about Schultz last night

And I thought, "Outta heah!!!!"

[Wellstone ruled]

6. He was on a rambleing 40 minute

spiel on Nicole Wallace program yesterday. Just could imagine the phone lines being white hot after that.

Appears Andy Lack and Company,does not want to lose their Audience numbers. His kissing of Trump's Ass did more damage than what it was worth.

[SHRED]

3. Oh

Ugh.

11. Like Joe Scarborough?

[jberryhill]

4. Good

[democratisphere]

5. How could any political strategist think Schultz is a winning ticket?!

Crazy sh't!

[FSogol]

15. Simple, Schultz's check cleared. n/t

[ReformedGOPer]

7. Maybe the same crazy guy who thought Sarah Palin was a good VP choice.

[GemDigger]

8. He went ballz to the wall yesterday on MSNBC. Enough so that I slammed my TV power button

OFF! I was shocked and hoped that they would fire him. He was verballing kissing Schultz's ass. If Schultz were closer he would have been literally kissing his ass.

9. I turned it off too! And I LOVE Steve Schmidt and Nicole Wallace,

but he campaigned for the Starbuck's douche on Nicole's show nonstop and I was bored and pissed.

10. Nicole did try hard to counter him but he buzz-sawed on about the glories of Schultz.

He's so tremendously articulate that when he gets going, it's almost impossible to stop him. He doesn't do the ridiculous gish gallop beloved of second and third tier reptilian "strategists." He uses his stentorian voice and thoughtful tone to plow straight through objections. Unfortunately, he's capable of using those talents for good or for ill.

13. I heard a clip. He wasn't even trying to pretend that he wasn't an informercial.

12. I am glad that MSNBC fired Schmidt

14. Where did you hear/read that Schmidt has been fired by MSNBC? I've been trying to find a

credible source and have posted this question in the other thread but it's as if my mic is not working, tap, tap.

16. MSNBC sacks Steve Schmidt after he begins advising 'spoiler' Howard Schultz on presidential run: rep
