'Morning Joe' Panelist Outraged That Chuck Todd Didn't Praise Chris Christie

TOM KLUDT – FEBRUARY 12, 2014, 8:30 AM EST

A "Morning Joe" panelist was shocked to learn Wednesday that some people weren't dazzled by Chris Christie's visit to Chicago.

NBC chief White House correspondent Chuck Todd stopped by the pro-Christie show and was immediately asked if the New Jersey governor had a "pretty good day" on Tuesday, when he delivered highly partisan remarks at the Economic Club of Chicago.

The question confused Todd.

"I guess it's a good day that what? That he didn't get, that more indictments didn't come in," Todd said.

(No indictments have been handed down in the investigation of last year's politically motivated lane closures on the George Washington Bridge)

1. I'm not outraged but I am surprised.

Toad is a right wing ball licker all the way. Man, I can't stand him.

2. Poor Nicole. She was so very very angry!

Christie gets no respect, I tell ya! No respect!
I like the way Chuck kept sipping his beverage to keep himself from saying something regretful. Classy.

3. I saw that. He starts getting testy with her around 1:01, altho the sound doesn't play here

I saw the show as it was happening. She was over-yelling him and it really was his turn to speak.

Wallace is on a really short fuse today...typical repukes can dish it out but obviously can't take it...

4. isn't she a former Palin staffer?

still doesn't quite get it.

[Mike Daniels]

7. I think she was assigned as part of Palin's prep team by the McCain campaign

but was never directly employed by Palin herself.

She (like Steve Schmidt) was pretty open about her frustration with Palin after the campaign was over but (unlike Schmidt) still seems to think that Palin is viable politically outside of being just a tea-party cheerleader.

5. Nicole sounds like a teenager

Then again, she might take that as a compliment.

6. Some days I like Chucky.

Certainly more than Karl Rove's dancing partner.

8. Let me get this straight Ms. Wallace

A governor, facing charges of extreme abuse of power over petty grudges, a growing picture of a politician as a weight throwing bully, gives one (presumably) good speech...and that means he's a contender?...a CONTENDER I tell ya! Sure he may be a corrupt power abusing bully but he gave a good speech!

Isn't that what they try to accuse Democrats of in regards to Obama but without, you know, evidence?

9. Did Nicole quit?

I missed Morning Joke this morning, is it true Mika said Nicole Wallace quit yesterday?

and "nothing burger" She speaks like a teenager and uses their lingo as well?
