explained one of the biggest state by state sabotage efforts by the Koch brothers and the republicons? There needs to be a major counter effort to what they are doing. The link to her report is on the MSNBC website.

It's her style that allows her to do it, as she doesn't do the abrasive man routine so many have wanted to see from liberal and progressive male pundits. They get shit canned while their talking conservative counterparts are allowed free reign. It's part of the network subconsicous lesson that all Democratic men are weak or their ideas ridiculous or unpopular.

(10,252 posts)she is very sweet natured and deep down, a very good and compassionate person. She's not self-centered as many pundits are (re David Gregory & Joe Scar). She's not mean-spirited, as many RW pundits are (re Hannity). She's not loud and abrasive (re Ed Schultz). She reeks of integrity and readily corrects any mistakes in her broadcasts. She's my favorite talking head. I record her show just in case I fall asleep before it plays.
her explanations and comparisons are very clear and understandable to the average person.
