Rachel Maddow nominated for a Grammy Award!

HuffPo is reporting that Rachel Maddow was nominated for Best Spoken Word Album with her book, “Drift: The Unmooring of American Military Power.” She’s up against Ellen DeGeneres, Bill Clinton and First Lady Michelle Obama.

That’s awfully good company.

Flashback: The Best New Thing in the World: I met Rachel Maddow last night (a personal fangirly account of the Big Book Signing Event).


You go Girl!!! We Love You Rachel!

I am shocked, utterly shocked.

How could they miss this visage at the Grammy Awards:
