Andrea Bitchell will never let repukes down. She should NOT have a show on MSNBC; she should be on Faux.

"where are the details of the plan? where's the meat?" (as if the repubs have offered up anything in terms of detailed plans!) - and Gwen Ifill, Judy Woodruff and Mark Shields were about ready to clank him on the head after awhile.

It's all they've got left. They certainly don't want to get caught up in a discussion about policy.

She will ask her the same thing. The Foo Fighters are rehearsing - she should ask them. Isn't James Taylor on deck? What does he think?

Shut up about the stadium thing. Sheesh, every show...every host MSNBC...blah, blah, stadium, blah, blah.

Was Mittens in a stadium? What's that weather?

Unfortunately, Andrea can't speak without stumbling over words. Few sentences are fluid. So if you ask the same questions over and over again, then it becomes easier to sound like you know what you are doing

and her husband is partially responsible for the economic meltdown, that's why. As long as she can do "look over there at that squirrel", she's hoping no one will remember her husband's policies.
