I think I'm in love with Rachael Maddow...
I can't fuckin wait till September 8. She is the frickin BOMB!!!! She states the progressive position with such clarity and authority that she simply dominates the discussion.

13. Yah
I think of him as trying to come across as the intellectual wit. The problem is "intellectual" doesn't mean you can't be animated and spontaneous. I think he just can't do it because it's not in his genes.

14.  I don't have to think I know that I am..
She's kicking butt on MSNBC and showing that she's above the BS. I can't wait till she has her own show during the GE.

16. I've noticed that too!
There was an article in the NY Observer today about how MSNBC ordered a limo for Rachel's ride home last night , in celebration of her new show, filled with champagne inside and everything. Supposedly, Eugene, Pat, and Michelle Bernard were all peeking inside and Keith was taking pictures! That's such a funny image.

18. I think Pat Buchanan is in love with Rachel tonight.
He really has been trying to comb over that bald spot and smile a lot. I don't think the love is returned.

20. I don't know her well enough to state that it's love

22. Let us not forget
... That if not for Keith Obermann and his popularity, Racheal would have never got her shot on MSNBC.

I contend the MSNBC would have gotten rid of Keith if he wasnt so popular.

23. I Love To See
I love to see Rachel and Olbermann discuss an issue...because it is such an informed discussion. They seem to like the challenge of besting each other.

She is one smart and strong lady. I am glad she is having so much success.
